about 2 weeks ago i tried a LC using karo. came out crystal clear after PC. injected, everything went fine. mycelium started to appear in 2 days. and now the water is starting to turn kinda brownish. just a tint of brown. i have another LC and the water is staing crystal clear. so is this one bad? i figured the mycelium wouldnt grow if it was bad. anyone have this happen before?

I just posted something similar... look forward to see what you are dealing with. I used light malt extract on mine... but one jar is dark and clear, the other light and cloudy... the dark clear being one that shows sign of some kind of growth.
Have any idea on how to post pictures within a post?

Strange that it turned brown well after you pc'd. That to me almost suggests contams. One of my lcs turned darker when i sterilized it, and it colonized just fine nps. one got a little murkier but not that bad. Were the rocks youre using for mixing completely clean?some sediment or something coulda came off in it.

i washed the marbles and cleaned them w/ alcohol. as long as the mycelium keeps on going, i guess ill let it go. later when i test it ill just try one BRF jar to see what happens. then if its good ill knock up a bunch..

Knock up a 1/2 pint test jar or two to know for sure 
Test jars are essential for LC's... it is frustrating to knock up a dozen jars only to find out they are all contaminated.
No point continuing to hold out hopes for something that you can find out is contaminated.
