My First time Growing Mushrooms Q
    #7609098 - 11/07/07 10:04 PM (16 years, 2 months ago)

HI i am a first time grower. I have a Q about growing mushrooms well i ordered the jars with the verm etc about a week ago and then i took me a week to order the spore needles well my Q is if you have the jars all set up like with everything in it already how long can you wait till you put the spores in there cause its already been a week an half and i still have not done it would that effect anything?
and another Q can spores expire? how long can i wait to use them?
what if there sitting in water how long can they be maintained?

so you ordered pre-sterilized jars?

id get them inoculated as soon as possible. why have you had them 1 1/2 weeks and not done anything to them yet?

spores will last a long time as long as they are kept in a cool dry place i.e. your fridge

well i just ordered the spore's i had to wait till i could get some more money thats why i waited but the jars are just sitting there. and liek how will that effect anything? Also it might be 10days till the spores get here should i just buy another set of pre-sterilized jars?

nah i wouldnt order more that would be a waste of money.

they're covered right?

id give them a shot once your spores come in.

also why dont you try making your own substrate mix next time its a hell of alot cheaper.

i must say, good choice starting with PFcakes, the experience is invaluable, next you should tackle making your own while they colonize

2cc's per jar should be enough though i usually use 4 with my pint sized cakes

if your jars are sealed then they'll be fine until you get your spores at the very least
