    Forsyte LEVEL +10 - IN GOOD STANDING
    no growth?

    i recently made a LC about 2weeks ago using the honey tek and has bn in incubation since but still no mycelium growth.
    i mixed 200 ml water with 8ml honey, PCed for 15min and saw no caramelization. innoculated the next day in my disinfected glovebox and then incubated at 37'c but nothing has grown in the past 2 and a half weeks.
    could it be that the spores are too old or maybe i did something wrong in the process?
    should i just wait abit longer?
    p.s. no signs of contams

    You might want to drop your temps somewhat. 37C = 98.6F, that is too warm.
    Shoot for about 26C or about 80F as mycelium growth drops off after 86F.
