You can't use tea and sugar for starter. Mold.

[Guest guest]

Dear One,

You have t use either acidic brewed Kombucha Tea, distilled white vinegar or

apple cider vinegar that has been brought to a boil for starter.

Otherwise, you are almost sure to get mold and have to throw everything out and

start over.

If you have only one culture to brew with, before you start, it might be best to

cut it in two pieces and save half to use next time in case you got mold.

Blessings on you all. LOve. MArge.
