LC Contamination?
    #5730474 - 06/09/06 12:06 PM (17 years, 7 months ago)

I was wondering if after injecting the LC with spores if the LC could be contaminated like if you were injecting regular jars with substrate in it where a green or black would start to grow? also is it needed to put an agitator inside the jar or would it be fine just to shake the jar everyday. Cuz i was thinking about putting like a AAA battery inside but im afraid it might explode during the PC stage.

No do not re-inject the LC, make a new one.

DONT use a battery, a piece of glass can work fine.

You do need or should have something in there that will agitate the mycelium, if not it will clump together and almost defeat the reason why LC is so great. But I have forgot one, then you have to shake the hell out of it.

lol, battery might not be the best thing to use.
I never put an agitator in mine and balls of mycelium grew in my LC.
Once mycelium starts to grow, a small amount of peroxide can be added to reduce the risk of contamination. And yes, they can get contaminated just as easy as substrate jars.

I have a lc that has been going for about three week and is only about 20 percent colonized. has this happened to anybody? I always hear about hopw fast they colonize. My other lcs that I just did about 4 days ago are starting to grow and will probably catch up soon. thanks

I'm just wondering because I made a syringe but I don't know if I made entirely sterile so I was wondering if a LC could become contaminated.

yes they can, and its a pain in the ass when they do. be careful with your cleanliness and sanitation procedures.
