Hi all,
reinitiated my growing. Got a couple of ? I'd like to ask ya.
- I used a coffee grinder to produce rice flour and there was still some coffee left. Can this destroy or halt colonization?
- I added malt to the substrate because I had some left for colonization on petri dishes, where it is used to produce the agga substrate. Do you think this might slow / halt the colonization?
- The spore syringes are more than a year old and I used destilled water to produce them. Could the spores be too old? Can destilled water slow / halt the colonization?
- I might have put to much water with the syringes into the substrate jars. Can this cause problems?
I'm 5 days after inocculation now and nothing happens. I just started airing through opening the inocculation holes, maybe that also slowed colonization?
Thx in advance for the answers.
The answer for you guys is no, coffe didn't slow it down, neither did malt. One worked, the spores were just a little old and i had contam too.
