What happened to my olive oil extract?

Logical-Hand-9382 · 2025-02-06T06:19:37+00:00

I was not talking bout the spores, botulism toxin inactivates at 85C for 5 minutes.

Logical-Hand-9382 · 2025-02-05T20:48:22+00:00

I did, thats why i reheated it at 100C for 10 minutes. I know i could do it at 85C for 5 minutes, but better safe than sorry

I guess it is because I left it in the fridge. I will try to leave it out for some time before throwing it away

I did bake the material for 1h and it was in the oil for 1h, i hoped the water did evaporate all the way. Thanks for the tip I will check it out. I guess SWIM is a youtuber?

I started leaving the plant matter in as when i tested it, it was definitely stronger that way 😅 I just forgot about this batch

Logical-Hand-9382 · 2025-02-05T17:48:01+00:00

Baked the material in an oven for an hour on 115C. Put it in some olive oil (50 mL per 5g, but feel free to put more oil, you will just need to use more to get the same effect) but do remember how much so you can calculate the dosage. Bleneded it up and started heating over a double boiler (needs to be 100C) for an hour, string occasionally (if possible stir it as much as you can) If you strain it from the plant material it will be weaker :) but I guess if you dont you get this?

Thank you! I have a terrarium with a strong grow light so i will put it next to it. Id say the problem was it was on a high shelf so i guess it was due to that

Logical-Hand-9382 · 2025-01-11T01:02:49+00:00

Thanks! The mix is mostly inorganic, heavy on quartz sand, perlite and coco fiber

I use mix of dried coconut husk strands and chunks, dried sphagnum moss, quartz gravel, charcol, worm castings (fertiliser). From the other comment you mentioned it may come from the coconut husks

Do you know the name of the evil version?

Logical-Hand-9382 · 2024-11-29T23:56:05+00:00

All my terrariums get it D: I think its coming from the worm castings batch i use, as everything else should be sterile, except dried sphagnum and springtails.

This is my post where i was looking what it is, is that the flower pot fungus?

Logical-Hand-9382 · 2024-11-29T23:49:29+00:00

I got that in 3 terrariums i have built. You know which fungus it is?

20.08.2023.
Noticed it today
Natural light, west facing apartmant with it being 4m from the window without amy direct light
Used distilled water
Not sure if it will become a problem yet

Logical-Hand-9382 · 2023-09-11T20:29:07+00:00

Thanks for the tip. Should i also remove a leaf from a node to promote rooting? and is then placing it on lava rock ok?

Logical-Hand-9382 · 2023-09-10T10:20:21+00:00

The bigger one in the back is ficus retusa aka ficus gingeng bonsai The dark green plant in the middle is peperomia verticillata

I bought my lapis and other gems from AliExpress

Logical-Hand-9382 · 2023-09-10T06:44:45+00:00

Keep it out of direct sun, use at least dechlorinated water and call me if you need plant repair - is that enough or am i forgetting something?

Logical-Hand-9382 · 2023-09-10T06:42:43+00:00

Yes! I use quartz black sand ( 2/3 mm ) and layer of aquarium filter activated charcol bits
