open air inoculation sucess!
    #7000205 -

I got extremely lucky with innoculating my LC and fungi rye bag in open air. They are both progressing without contamination. However, the bag is progressing at a glacial speed. The LC is almost done colonizing. When its done should I suck up some of that mycelium and inject it into my fungi bag to speed it up?

? i always open air inoculate. I like "glacial" that's great, i've found that with spore to grain before too. LC to grain is much much faster. I don't know anything about adding LC to it to speed it up though.

Yeah, open air inoculation isn't really that risky. When I get screwed up, it's usually the substrate conditions that do it.

1 cubic foot of normal household air contains on average:
100,000 invisible particulates.
So, every square inch of that air carries:
One hell of a load of possible contaminate spores.

Best success rate for open air inoculation.
Is to continuously keep the needle covered.
With an alc saturated gauze pad, foam, paper towel, or cotton balls.
Otherwise, you will not BE LUCKY, FOR LONG.

I do all open air and have no problem with contams . I make my lids just for this purpose . I have one 1/4" hole in the lid for GE , and another 1/4" hole with polyfil in it that I soak with alcohol and inoculate through .



I also keep the syringe covered with an alcohol soaked coet .

do most people here actually use a glovebox or something? SWIM has never had contams as a result of air...the one they got was because of a bad syringe.

lysol for surfaces, oust for the air, dust mask and rubber gloves.


--------------------
Thinking of opening and reusing or trying to save that contaminated jar? READ THIS FIRST and then decide if you want to or not.

Are you a visual learner? Is it easier to SEE than READ how to grow? Order this video then.

My MUST read information on Salvia. I have been a student of Her since 2001.
