Magnetic stirrer for LC's... How fast is too fast?!?!
    #7584172 - 11/01/07 02:02 PM (16 years, 2 months ago)

I just got a magnetic stirrer for about $30 on ebay.
I thought it would be able to hold 4 quart jars since there is enough room, but ONLY 1 quart at a time seems to be stirring properly.

Anyways, to the question..
How fast is too fast?
When I put the RPM's 8-10 on the magnetic stirrer... my LC is like a level 5 tornado!

I was just wondering if the faster it stirs... the quicker the LC would be ready
Also, would too fast damage the LC in any way.... the spores must be extremely dizzy when it will be time to inoculate!
Hopefully it will lead to some trippy shrooms!

thanks!

I think as long as it's moving at all it doesn't really matter how fast, I can't imagine a faster speed making a difference.

thats funny, I think the opposite
the faster it stirs, the quicker the LC will be ready

You should stir your LC to a full blown tornado once a day. This breaks it up into clumps so that it'll grow from each clump accordingly. The other few times you stir should be gentle to introduce air. Stirring hard a lot will damage the myc and cause them to work harder to repair itself thus making the LC grow slower and waste nutrients repairing itself.

Let it rip full blast once a day and that should suffice...the reason only one jar will mix at a time is because its probably designed to mix one solution at a time (meaning that theres only one magnet under the plate spinning the stir bar).

Wow! There are a lot of opinions on the subject! I say a medium churn for about 30 seconds is enough.You can damage mycelium beyond repair.. Remember, these are living organisms we are dealing with.
