Too Wet Jars? (pics)
    #7463553 - 09/28/07 09:37 AM (16 years, 4 months ago)

Hi! I am on my first grow, and I've made 3 batches of vermiculite + organic rye flour cakes. I added water slowly to vermiculite, mixed well, until a little water droplet came out. Then added flour. Steamed with foil lids on for 1,5-2 hours.

Then my 10-day old jar looks like this: (red is a reflection)

I looked at other people's pictures and this looks wetter! Am I doing it wrong? :hulk:  Is it drowning?? I know there should be some water but the cake looked dry, no droplets visible, then all 11 (that I've made during this month) look like that in some point... temperature is 26-28 degrees Celsius.

This one turned 100% in about 28 days (but I had one colonize in 22 too) Does it look ok? Doesn't look like very solid white....


To be more accurate the containers are regular size drinking glasses with foil lids... 2 jars would have their birthday today (1 week after full colonisation) but I don't know, if the water/liquid is bad maybe they're not even ready yet, or contamed... they don't smell, at least not if I don't lift the whole foil? Haven't tried, sounds risky. ALSO is there some notable difference, rye flour vs. BRF in how it looks? I can't find BRF in my city (and I live in a small country in Europe)

Help a n00b, I don't wanna lose my babies :sad: :heart:

those jars look great to me. I don't see any problems. If they were too wet, they wouldn't have gotten 100% colonized in the first place.

Ah I see :blush:  Maybe I'm stressing too much, but I'd hate to lose my grow.... (the 10-day old looks even wetter though than my older ones did)

I'll birth 1 jar tonight, I hope it's okay :blush:

Those look frigging fantastic! Check your heat. I notice that
if mine are too hot that will happen. I leave mine at room temp
(70 to 75 F) and it works out perfect.


I would use that top jar as a master and noc up more once it is fully colonized.

Really?!? :laugh: Wow! I was sure I'm going to screw this up, but I guess I got some n00bie luck on my side! None of the 11 jars look like they have contams! Of course things can go downhill at any moment though. I got my spores from FSRE, I'll make sure to send them prints if I succeed. :grin:

I'm going to lower the temperature a little! Thanks for the advice people :heart: :heart:

Your temp is fine, I wouldn't mess with it this late in colonization, it might trigger fruiting. 80-82 is a very good temp to incubate at, only drop the temp to 70-75 when your ready to fruit.

That growth looks excellent too, good job!

Hmm I see, leaving them is probably better in this case then... :crazy: Actually it is possible the temp has spiked to 29-30 celsius at some points, it isn't very stable at all times! Maybe that made the myc sweat a lot.

Thanks again, you give me hope hehehee  :regularshroom:
