ok, I will try to tackle making a new culture (or two) tomorrow then... Too burned out after that springtail chaos to deal with it right now lol. One more question on that for now... I bought 4 containers. When a culture dies can I wash out the container or would I have to get more each time? I have the two I bought in plastic jar type things with screw on lids, and the 4 from NEHerp.
