recent culture crashes

thanks. i am going to try to gather up the few flies i have and make a new culture. James, i have followed those directions every time and they are at 70-71 degrees now, but it might be too dry.

Sounds like the cause.

Good Luck!

During the winter I will also lightly mist cultures that look like they are drying out too. Its sucks and can be a challenge. I keep all my cultures in the basement (wife can't stand the smell.... they don't smell... anyways). I bought a space heater to keep down there to keep the space they are in warm and that has helped me out a whole bunch!
