This is proving to be more difficult than I thought! I've got several different batches going, I'll post pics once I'm sure that I'm not just growing a nasty batch of mold haha. It's been 6 days and no sporulation so I'm gonna assume I'm on the right track...

Anyone have experience with this sort of thing? Am I better off just buying a SCOBY from a vendor? I don't know anyone who does this so I'm in unfamiliar waters.

Success! The one I thought would fail actually has the healthiest growth. I used unpasteurized raw garlic honey for sweetener instead of sugar, like the others. Interesting. So long as nothing molds in the coming weeks, this actually worked out pretty well.

Personally I would just make kombucha myself.
