Possible contams ? (Pics)
    #5903337 - 07/26/06 10:06 PM (17 years, 6 months ago)

I inoculated last sunday, haven't been incubating, just keeping in a cabinet above the fridge that's probably around 75-78.

This is my first ever try, so I don't have all the materials yet, though I have 4 syringes in the mail already, with which I plan to master LC and experiemnt with different teks to find one I like the most.

Anyway, everything looked good, though they are growing very slowly they are growing pure white and in every jar. The only thing I noticed for the first time today was the jars seem to be 'sweating' where the myc is growing. It's hard to explain but if you turn the jars sideways you can see water droplets clinging to the glass but only where the myc is growing. Is this normal? I tried getting a couple picture, and it's hard to see from straight on but a side picture just wouldn't work. The 'sweat' appears to have a yellow tint but that could just be from the lighting. It just appeared today for the first time, but it's in almost every jar (all but one I believe).

Should I move these or is this completely normal. I know I'm being a paranoid noob but everything up to this point has gone pretty well and if these are contamed I need to figure out right away what happened.

Also, the jars have 2 layers of aluminum over there (PF for simple minds) - on another poster's advice I loosed the top layer of alum, but left it on so I believe they have adequate room to breath.

Anyway, here are the pics;

Yeah, as I was posting it I read through some other threads and found that the sweating looks normal - the pic doesn't really capture it, it does appear to have a yellow tint to it but I think that might just be the light. Thanks guys :smile:

Its fine- even if theres a little yellow, that also could be 'Myc piss', which is normal.

Still looks good, you'll know for sure if it's contaminated in a few more days. I just had to kill off four jars, never a good feeling having to redo work >.<

It's just condensation. I've seen it most my brf jars and it doesn't seemed to be linked to any kind of contamination. That foil is really unnecessary, the verm layer is all the protection you need. You might actually get faster colonization by taking it off to improve gas exchange.
