Hey I haven't been on in a few months but I just recently (two days ago) started some jars for a crop so I'll be following it in this thread, hopefully all goes well

I sterilized for 2-2.5 hours this time around to be safe, so if anything goes contam I have NO clue why lol

Thanks for watching, I'll post pics later this week or weekend when there's some mycelium to look at

sounds delicious.

Look forward to seeing em! Hope everything works out. Love the avatar i forgot about them... gumby!

what method of sterilization are you using? If your not using a PC you cant guarantee its sterile.

It still has a high probability of being sterilized though. My friend used a small pot and sterilized one jar at a time for 60 mins each and he has never had a contaminated jar to date!

Well if it works for you then use it. I could never get steam sterilization down so i just bought a PC

Hahaha thanks for the comments guys I'm looking forward to having you follow the grow

I used to use a regular pot with a lid to sterilize which was only successful 1 of 3 or 4 times (I probably just got lucky), which led me into buying a 5.5L pressure cooker this time around (it only reaches a max 11.something PSI [comparable to 15 for most other PCs] which I read is acceptable but you have to prolong the sterilization which is why I did over 2 hours worth)..

By the way AKRevo47, I watched that show in your avatar for the first time a few days ago.. it was messed up but great entertainment I must say - I was hysterical the whole way through

Mmm alright last night I checked the jars and there were the beginnings of mycelium growth (it spread a bit more this morning)... It's going to be a challenge but in order to be sure I don't contaminate the jars I might leave them colonize for just over another week (so until the first weekend of July) until I check them again, but so far so good, and it seems the mycelium from Dancing Tiger is colonizing faster than that of Z Strain

You can check out my outdoor NL grow in the meantime if you like, I should get some more photos by the end of this weekend for that one

Peace

K well I obviously lied about how long I was going to leave the jars alone without checking them, I'm too anxious... so 5 of the 8 are showing signs of SOMETHING, 3 of the 5 are GOOD mycelium, the other two look a bit less white and more creamy though so may be mold, and the other 3 just aren't responding at all, there's nothing going on in them

I'll wait a bit longer
