Question about my first substrate
    #5906154 - 07/27/06 05:33 PM (17 years, 6 months ago)

I mixed and sterilized my substrate today...but I wasn't able to inoculate them as I hoped. I kept the bottles covered with the tops and then foil. Would I have to worry about loss of moisture if I wasn't able to inoculate them before tomorrow or Saturday?

or you can just always keep a jar of everything you make
and set it aside.

to use as a control jar.

after a few weeks of letting it sit, inoculate it.

it will help you rule out your sterilization process as a failure point.

Well I even roasted the vermiculite and the BRF at 300 in the oven before mixing it and putting it in the jars and sterilizing it. If my mail brings me the spores tomorrow I won't have the patience to wait another few days before innoculating.
