OVER DUE SUBSTRATE. HELP!
    #5827821 - 07/06/06 02:01 PM (17 years, 6 months ago)

i had already mixed my brown rice substrate as follows: 2cups brown rice flower, 2cups water and 1 cup of vericulite. the mix was spread out into 8 1/2 pint jars. they were all set for the pressure cooker but when i tried to steralize i found out that the pc was no good. my jars have been sitting in a closet for a week and are dried out.

i need some input from experience cultivators. how should i go about rehydrating the substate?? ive already got the new pressure cooker and am just awaiting some suggestions before moving on.

any help is much appriciated. thanks.

start over with your jars if they look too dry, i dont really see how they could dry out tho. i let a few jars sit for like 4 days without pressure cooking and they contamed

start over. and check your recipe, because that's not right, there should be a lot more verm in there. (normally i use 1/4cup brf, 1/4cup water, 1/2 cup verm per half pint... for 8 jars you should have had 2 cups each of brf and water, and 4 cups verm.) dunno how you even had enough mixture to fill 8 jars with those numbers. the jars shouldnt have dried out in a week either, and would have done so had you injected them... so you're missing something else here too, and lucky to find it before having wasted spores. dont try to save those. re-check the tek and start again.
