First contamination ever, don't know how it happened, but the other 24 jars are fine! It's like watching your babies die... and knowing you have to dump out their insides and then boil their carcass before you can have another baby... =( Though all the ones that I was worried wouldn't grow at all are thriving now! Also as a question to those who have been growing for a while... do you still get contams or is that a strictly noobie mistake? I flamed the needle with an alcohol flame, used a glove box, boiled the jars with a pressure cooker... I just don't know what went wrong with this jar. Also, anyone know what this is? My guess is forest mold, but I wouldn't even be able to come up with another guess seeing as I have no clue about that kinda shit.
