? about colonizing jars
    #6824426 - 04/23/07 06:44 PM (17 years, 8 months ago)

I have 1/2 pint Brf. verm jars that I put tape on the four Innoc. sites then tin foil over the top. Then PC. After inoculation is it ok to tape the tin foil and jar with masking tape to make sure it is air tight and prevents contams.? Or is this not a good thing?

no you do not want too tape up the foil on the jars. they need FAE (Fresh Air Exchange) you can leave the foil on the jars and the tape over the holes for bow, but once you see growth in the jars and remove both. also once the jars are about half way colonized flip em over. it helps the myclium colonize the bottom of the cake better.

thanks for the input but fae during colonization will probably provide more contams. than benificial. Someone else got an answer.

thats why the dry vermiculite barrier is placed in the top of the jars, too act like a filter or barrier for contam's.

WHOA!!! Did you pressure cook after inoculation!? By your post here it would seem that you did, "I put tape on the four Innoc. sites then tin foil over the top. Then PC." I hope not, the high temperature will kill the spores... I think it was 106F.

the fae's are only needed during fruiting. all u need is simple gas exchanges during incubation which can be achieved jus by leaving your holes uncoverd.

the bes.t thing to do is if you have that dry verm layer on top is to yea leave those holes uncovered keep them in a dark place at about 80 degrees an try not to peek on them to much. and you just wait.

yup. took me about 3 weeks too fully colonize all but one of my jars. now the last one appears done and its week 4. i only peaked once a week for the first 2 weeks then by about the 4 day of week 3 i checked em every day and gave em a lil light. also flip em over so the lids are down when there about 50% done that will help em colonize the bottoms of the jars. also tape is alright till you got about a quarter size patch of mycelium then take it off.
