Ok Ive started my first go at the PF-Tek 4 Simple Minds. I had to make me own syringes from a print, (Ralphsters :D )
So far 2 of the slower jars have Green Contam one of the fast ones 90% got black contam. (Im using a PC) ** I chucked out the bad ones **
Black stuff just ripped throught the Myc in 2 days started as a dot then just ripped through like a storm.
19days since Inncoulation 7 of 10 are 98-100% colonised! :)
Why is it that all 10 where made at the same time and 3 contaminated ?
What could of caused that ? May the needle hit a bug in the air or I had a couple of bugs land in my spore solution when I made it ? *Oven Tek*
Annoying but atleast I get to make up some more jars again!
I dunno about you, but before I noc up my jars, I sterilize the needle with a lighter. I repeat this again every 2 jars to prevent cross contamination. I dunno, just something I picked up from another tek.

I just wipe the needle with swabs.
