lime reaction and time
    #7911422 - 01/21/08 07:14 PM (16 years, 11 days ago)

So someone sterilized some 50/50 casing mix with hi yield hydrated lime in ten jars. They tried to use two jars with with a wbs mix and it failed to colonized possibly due to excessive lime (recipe lost).
Seven months later the remaining wbs jars are taken out of the fridge and cased with three of the same jars that had been sitting in the pantry (sterlized 7 months ago). BOOM roppy white growth in under two days through the casing. Third day placed in terrarium at 80-85% humidity and 69-72 degrees F. Been four days and all signs of mycelium growth has stopped and nothing has yet to happen.
Would the time frame allow for the lime to react?
I have never really heard of anyone discuss reaction time for ph change.
I know it has IMPORTANT affects in other aspect of life...(yopa: anadenanthera colubrina production)

I never guess. It is a capital mistake to theorize before one has data. Insensibly one begins to twist facts to suit theories, instead of theories to suit facts.
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

Mistakes are a part of being human. Appreciate your mistakes for what they are: precious life lessons that can only be learned the hard way. Unless it's a fatal mistake, which, at least, others can learn from.
