So for the past month I have been looking for a good source of phytoplankton but was not able to source any for sustainable use. So I did what most would do. Research and lots of it studied and then finally pulled the trigger. Happy to say I been successful in brewing my own batch of phyto.

How long Typically would a bottle last before it spoils? How does one know when its gone bad?

from what i remember, you can pretty much keep a culture in the fridge for like up to a year. could be wrong though lol havent used phyto in forever.

I think it's good in the fridge for a month but you have to shake it like everyday. Not a 100% sure it's been a couple years since I grew some

I remember when Eric gave everyone small bottles at our meetings, He said give it a shake each day. Just didn't remember what he said was the shelf life.

so typically the shelf life of phytoplankton if refrigerated should be about somewhere to six months to a year from what I have been reading. That includes inverting it not daily but when it starts to settle I guess I mean I keep it in the refrigerator so I see it daily but I plan on using it so probably won’t have that long of a shelf life. If it has a foul smell it’s gone bad from what I’m reading as well. It’s a learning process ans i do love to learn.
