Those ones in the pic are from wallmart.comwal-mart dude
So those wide mouth ones in my pic are good to go?a little shoulder wont hurt.... but you don't wanna get total hutch back jars! Just a little tap on the bottom and POOF their out!
Cool. I was told to put the verm layer on the bottom of the jar my the famous ANC.those would do fine my friend!
Just make sure the clean the rim out good before and after you fill your jars with the much needed vermiculite/BRC MIX!
Yea I remember you telling me that but I just wanted to make sure that those mason jars would be o.k. in case I get them. Just dont wana fuck things up ya know? Thanks for all your help ANC! You have been my #1 guy for my research.The only thing you can't do with a jar with shoulders is BRF cakes, as you can't slide them out intact.
As I explained in another thread, a simple straight sided whiskey tumbler with a lid made from tinfoil held on by a rubber band works fine too...
Remember you said To put a layer of verm on the bottom of the jar with my wbs? I dont have to sterilize that do I? The pc should do that right?Yea I remember you telling me that but I just wanted to make sure that those mason jars would be o.k. in case I get them. Just dont wana fuck things up ya know? Thanks for all your help ANC! You have been my #1 guy for my research.
Yea i'm gona use tyvek too. They are ready to inject the next day after pc'em right?![]()
A layer about as thick as the tip of your little finger...
And also a pic of how to make an easy lid, polyfill from petshop, (NOT COTTONWOOL), you just inject straight through it, flameing the needle between doing each jar.

Good idea. What will a contaminated jar look like before you inject them?yeah they are normaly cool enough in a half a day's time.
I like to let them sit for 4 days or so to show any possible contaminated jars... before injecting.
if they then contaminate I know the problem was with the syringe rather than second guessing my whole process up to that point.
Cool man. I hope for the best for no contams but thanks for the signs. Some people say give the jar a shake right after you inject them and others say wait til they are 30% colonized. What do you say?if shit grows in there that you didn't inject, its contaminated
If you do go for the cambos' they are trickier as they myc is not always all white like with cubensis strains, and can resemble that grey cotton mold you sometimes get.
Next time you go to the shop, pick up a packet of button mushrooms and give it a good smell, that is the smell yo uwant when you eventualy open your jars, any cidery or sour smells comming from your jars, and you throw them out outside, downwind with your nose and mouth covered.
