Newbie here...quick question
    #9387488 - 12/07/08 07:31 PM (16 years, 1 month ago)

Hey guys, new to the hobby here.  I have a quick question. I followed guides here and there to inoculate the jars and whatnot.  Heres the deal.  I HAVE to keep the project in the cellar which holds at about 69 degrees so its a tad chilly.  I used BRF cakes in 1/2 pint jars.  I inoculated them about 2 1/2 weeks ago at 78-80 degrees with no sign of myc.  Now heres the deal. I had the holes uncovered for 2 weeks until I read to keep them covered to hold in the CO2.  I have a dry verm layer on top also.  I see NO myc at all!!!  They still have moisture in them too.  So any ideas whats goin on here?!?  I understand they could just be a lost cause...  Thanks guys!

Several possibilities.

Where did you get the spores from?

Do you have them wrapped in a NON-heated blanket?  This should give a boost to the internal temperature (recommended internal temp is 80-85*.

Do you see any contamination?

well, 2 jars were contaminated out of 12.  Spores were from sporestore.com.  I have the incubator wrapped with a fleece non-heat blanket around it.

i've heard lots of bad things about sporestore. Most people's syringes from sporestore dont do anything at all. Try sporeworks

my spores are from spore store as well so I guess we will seee if mine turn out ok. just a quick off topic question: how long after you put your cakes in the fruiting chamber should you pick them(im guessing right after they drop there veil)?

85 is way to high. Optimum growth is at 83F and with the heat produced by the substrate your room temperature should never be higher than 80F

Yes, Nibin.  I was referring to the temperature INSIDE the jar. (Hence, "internal" temperature.)

After 2 1/2 weeks your jars should be mostly colonized.. sounds like you got some bunk syringes -- Ive ordered from Ralphsters and Lil Shop of Spores without any problems, try one of them.

Oh and you don't want tape on the jar lid holes, leave them UNcovered.

My friend inoculated 20 jars with a filtered needle not too long ago, nothing ever grew from those jars. Ive also seen 2 jars out of 10 inncoulated with the same syringe not grow anything, make sure to shake the syringe really well. GL

Even so it should not go over 83.

You could, but I'd wait until you receive the syringe and are ready to begin again before you dump them.  Given the chance that they may have a break through.  ^_^

DUDE, YOU GOT TAKEN!....same happen here. FUCK SPORE STORE! THEY ARE A RIP OFF! I DO NOT CONDONE BUYING FROM THEM AT ALL! On a lighter note, go with Little shope of spores, they never disappoint. Your supplyer was a bunk site with bunk spores, did you order a print or a syringe?
