Using this tek: http://en.psilosophy.info/agar_substitute.html

I know these spores work because I've gotten them to pin on cardboard, I think I'm just fucking up by not making shit sterile

if you not at least bucket tek pasteurization it gunna fail likely.. fuck auto clave that agar at least, its all really a game of time,, cuz no matter what you doo eventually the nutes depleted and fungus gunna die and the mold and other shit competing with it win, so really you wanna get your shit well colonized on something and dont let it fruit tell then,,that way you atleast can say it has a fighting chance,,,

Are you saying pressure cooking for 25 minutes won't sterilize anything?

It's the air when you transfer the spores to the medium. There's all sorts of mold spores in the air that will fuck your work up. I say the moment you think you've gone too far with sterilization, take another step.

That's basically what I did this time. I questioned one jar and had to crack it open and ended up re-steralizing everything, then when I was actually handling shit I dumped iso on my hands in between every item.

If it's ever going to work, it's going to be this time. Next step would be using an actual spore syringe.

A spray booth would probably work great for this. I tried to make one once but i fucked it all up. If you could cut holes in the side of a see through plastic box and then glue gloves to those holes, you could then close off the entire box with a bottle of lysol inside of it and then spray the box to death.

Yeah, see,I should have built a transfer box, but this was spur of the moment. Next time (TM)

So far so good. Both jars are showing signs of life, but one jar doesn't look right. COULD be a shadow though, as the bigger the mycelium spot gets the more it looks normal. The other jar is looking a lot healthier. Should ideally know in the next weed or two how well it's really working.

fool proof method is when it starts to gain knots ,,, and you can see the MS strands of mycelium roping around and shit, and you crack it open and it smeels like fresh mushrooms LOL

Yeah, idk. Idek what I could do different next time but this shit for sure has mold in one, and the other one should have done more by now.

as admin on shroomrey fb page. is see a million mfs do shit wrong, right and expert . alot of folks dont release how unreliable these things are. shit can stall out when over for a hundred different variables. if your shit aint strong enough it will be conquered by another microorganism.

is it cobweb mold? you can nip it in the butt if you cought it early enough , quarantine the sickys,, get some Dihydrogen dioxide

and a Qtip and dab infected areas, if small,,, and had a few drops of it to a water bottle and mist with that for a few days... if its mold it should bubble up and dissolve pretty much. if your shit is weak you just killed it

expect it to turn bright blue more than likely

I think these spores weren't great, and I didn't make a proper slurry. Probably fucked up other places too.

Idec at this point. 4aco is easier to obtain and better than yucky old mushrooms.

Ugh, so the vendor I was going to get 4-aco from is out so I might have to get 4-HO-met

Huh, so the one jar actually might be okay. I think I figured out part of what I've been doing wrong.

Basically the first time I never vented anything, so it suffocated.
The second time I over vented so it got hella contaminated and got bugs in it and shit
This time I left the jars alone for like a week, and once the mycelium started I vented them for a few seconds once a day. Seems to have worked because what started off looking sort of like cobweb mold has now progressed into absolutely being mycelium.
