PF- Tek First Grow Attempt (Pics)

This is the first attempt to someone growing P. Cubensis. SWIM had assembled all the proper materials Vermiculite, Brown Rice Flour, and such other things: [url=http://imageshack.us][image] http://img525.imageshack.us/img525/9510/10006410rc.jpg[/image][/url]
SWIM then proceeded to drill 3/16'' holes in 5 key points of the lids:

After boiling for 35 minutes, SWIM took them out, cooled them and inoculated the three:

SWIM's short boiling time was due to circumstances beyond his control, and tommorow night he will make another 4 which will boil for 1 hour.
As well, SWIM's question is this: After innoculating the 3 jars, how would one re-use the spore syringe- SWIM wiped it clean with Alcohol and squirted a bit out after use- is that sufficient?
*SWIM will be taking pictures every 5 days. -Tonight SWIM also started a fourth jar, but will let it cool overnight.

You should boil for more like 2 hrs... IMO
edit: Yeah it does look a little brown

Ok SWIM will purchase the bigger kind tommorow (by word-of-mouth SWIM had heard that finely ground will allow less contam once sterilized)
SWIM will be starting 8 more tommorow so no problems

the fine works. I like the coarser verm, it colonizes faster, but the fine will work.
keep using fine for the dry verm layer after you start using the bigger stuff in the substrate.

1, to take a good picture you want light to be in front of the object you're taking the pic of. light->camera->object, or even camera->light object. you've got light coming from behind the jar. and 2, wtf is SWIM?
