If your growth will get back to normal speed, I think you'll have to wait for about 2 more weeks before birthing.

My guess is that you're not giving your mycelia enough air exchange.

Try making the four holes on your lids bigger. Use hammer and nail (sterilizing the nail before proceeding might be a good idea). The holes should be about 1/8" in diameter, that's what worked for me. !Try not touching the verm layer too much with the nail!

If you're paranoid about contams or if you haven't got a good tight-fitting dry verm layer on top of your substrate you could tape the holes up with micropore tape. Don't use tape that won't breathe!

Another, easier option is to just loosen the lids. Don't do this if your verm layer is messed up.

Also I would suggest flipping the jars upside down in order to get the CO2 out.

P.S. I'm on my first grow too so this is just an unqualified guess based upon what I've read. However, two of my jars had very small holes in them too (could barely get the syringe in) and guess what, they have both halted in growth while all the others with big holes are 80-100% colonized by now (totally about 20 jars).

Good luck and keep us updated!




Thanks man, will definately give that a shot, and as far as my next attempt goes, sterile technique all the way - at least i know where i went wrong this time.
