my 1st lc going great need some imput
    #8106855 - 03/05/08 04:29 PM (15 years, 11 months ago)

well i took some clean mic from a freshly birthed pf cake
four days ago and put it in a 3% karo lc (in my glovebox)

only did 100 ml in 200 ml glass jars

after 3 days the little 1\8 of an inch spec of mic as like quadrupled in size and theres a huge 3/4 inch growth in the middle of the lc

the lc is really clear btw and the growth looks really white

my question is i taped the lid shot
did a syringues hole but its like 1mm and i taped it shut with ducktape

do i really need gaz exchange ??

should i put some breathable tape on the hole ??

i plan on inoculating 10 pf and some wbs in 2 to 3 days
should i wait for more growth

then the lc is going in th fridge anyway does it need gaz exhange theres ?? i will be in sealed ziploc bags

yes it needs it needs to breath if you want the mycellium to keep growing
you should wait longer so you fill out that jar with more mycellium so you can have more LC to inoculate substrates later

I don't think the jar has to be vented, it's growing in water...

it still needs to let out all the co2 in the jar...

thats why some people will shake their LC's in order to get some air bubbles

ive had an lc sit for a week with the same amount of myc and after a shake it doubled in size within the next few days

you dont shake to get air bubbles, you shake to get the mycelium broke up and evenly distributed.

theres usually plenty of air leftover in the jar for the lc to grow just fine

I'm about to start an LC tonight, but only have the supplies for one. Can you use an LC to noc' up another LC? I can't see why not, but it just sounds a bit odd.

maybe i exaggerated a bit but pending on how big of the lc and the way it was made you need to have gas exchange... like when using a pressure cooker in a sealed jar some people use a syringe to inject more air into the lc to promote growth
