LC question
    #7411772 - 09/15/07 01:35 AM (16 years, 4 months ago)

After I noc-up a jar properly mixed with dextrose and xtra light dry malt extract and distilled water:

WHEN should I agitate with a magnetic stirrer?

Right after inoculation? or after some mycelium has established?

I don't have any stir rods, what else do ppl use if they are needed...marbles?

I don't know where you live, but I go to my local "Hobby Lobby" and buy these..
I then use my dremel to cut it in half. Presto! Two magnetic stir rods.

Anyone?

also, are vacu-tainers a must? I will be building a 24x12 flow hood, should I vacu-tain or not worry about it?

A nail or screw will work for magnetic stirring. Test it with the magnet before you put it in the jar. Or use a marble or a piece of glass if you want to hand-agitate.

Honestly, I keep forgetting to put something in the jars, and I'm still doing ok. Only had one that got so thick I couldn't suck it up well.

I plan on using a coiled-up piece of wire.

Oh, that's really smart.
Steel wire for magnetic stirring? Or just going to swirl the jars?
