Making my liquid culture........
    #7924345 - 01/24/08 01:57 PM (16 years, 8 days ago)

Well, I made my LC base today. Potatoe water, light corn syrup, PC'ed for 40 mins. Waiting to cool.

I have 7 quart jars and I have 7 types of spore syringes. On top of that my uncle works at the hospital and he got me about 30, 10 and 20 cc sterile syringes.

I got my grow room all set up. Cakes waiting, 50 lbs rye. I'll bee cookin' in a few short weeks.

Been reading The Mushroom Cultivator and every thread I can on here. I should be good to go.

More to come.

Try 1/2 pints for LC, the quarts are too large IMHO, and it's easier to extract the LC from a 1/2 pint then a quart, IMHO.

I'm pretty sure 40 minutes is to long to PC light corn syrup due to carmelization. I could be wrong? Just giving you a heads up! Sounds like your well prepared to start this wonderful hobby...Good luck!!!

Yea...I just made my first LC about 2 weeks ago and chose a 1/2 jar for this reason. My jar is only about 3.5" tall and it still looks like it's going to be awkward trying to draw out myc. with about a 2" needle. Maybe there's a better method to the madness, but I would think quart jars would be a bitch to work with.

I always got contamns in my potato LC so I just use a lil malt with karo and have better luck. I don't think the over PC'ing will hurt, 15 min would have probably been fine though.
