My starter culture just came in the mail a bit earlier than thought. The thing is, I don't have the right water for my tank. Can I put it in the refrigerator? Or should I give it air and sunlight? I'm going shopping soon

I have been taking spirulina (5-10g) for around 2 months now and love everything about it including the extra energy it gives me. however I have seen scattered information online regarding spirulina sometimes been contaminated with BMAAs and therefore perhaps causing ALS. Ive tried researching if this link is valid and trustworthy but I'm unable to debunk or confirm it. Either im not looking in the correct place or don't understand the science. I was wondering if anyone has any credible information/links stemming from where this idea has come from. As it must have some origin. Im assuming a published paper or research but Im unable to locate it. Any assistance would be appreciated.

​

I would really like to continue taking Spirulna but if the risk of ALS is too high then it's an easy choice. Apologies if this question has already been asked I am unable to find any similar quires from a search.

I hear 10ph is ideal? Is that true?

I am from a small town in India which is surrounded by hundreds of acres of fish and prawn cultivating farms.i want to start a small spirulina plant for producing spirulina as supplements for fish and prawns.looking for guidance on the cultures to be used,open or closed cultivation,cost effective and sustainable farming methods,problems faced during cultivation,safe daily dosage for fish and prawns and a lot of questions.it would be great if you give me some suggestions or links to any materials or videos available. Thanking you all in advance.

Would you prefer spirulina with a subtle good flavor, light color and non algae (fishy) scent? (Naturally and unprocessed)

So my girlfriend recently used a spirulina face mask that she described as having a strong fish smell. Are there any potential negative effects to using it on skin? I understand there are negative health effects through ingestion if its bad but I can't find anything about effects on the skin

Hello everyone,

I’m looking for some guidance, feel free to contribute whatever you feel like related to it. So, I’m a recent graduate at University of Manitoba, and Manitoba is home to more then 100,000 lakes which includes many huge water bodies. One of the problems which is being faced at this lake is related to algal bloom, and to solve this problem I want to convert the algal bloom into organic fertilizers, so I can solve t2 problems at same time. To sell any sort of fertilizer we need licensing and many other legal paperwork, as a recent graduate I don’t have such resources to approach this project. What are your suggestions, if I want to approach this project and eventually setup a profitable business. I welcome all the suggestions and advice. Thank you

Kind regards G.K

Bought this around September or November, its been opened but left in the fridge. Is it still safe to use?

The spirulina is organic and with certificates from holyflavours brand it should be good I think. But I have been taking 3 mg spirulina for 18 days and since 4 days I feel nauseous every now and then and have a headache and am very tired it is a kind of flu feeling. is this normal? am I detoxing? I hope someone can answer my question. Thank you in advance.

Hi Everyone!

I'm doing my masterthesis about an installation to grow Spirulina at home. Any issues you have with growing Spirulina or with an installation at home? Or what do you think about the home growing sets that are already on the market today? Would be lovely to have some input, tips and feedback from the Spirulina community:) Would use this information to see what adjustments I could make to my thesis!

Thanks beforehand!!

Hi I just got my spirulina cultures in the mail and I’m wanting to begin expanding them, I have potassium Nitrate , epsom salt , and baking soda on hand, will these ingredients be enough to get me started and in what ratios ? I have tiny vials of spirulina I was gonna put in mason jars with filter patches on the openings , Any help would be appreciated

I've bought a spirulina grow kit a few months ago and it has grown to 2cm on the succhi metre. I have tired and tried to harvest with a 44micron mesh. Always ends ups going straight through besides a tiny bit.

I have a pH meter and it's around 12 and I followed the nutrient mix instructions exactly.... Is there anyway to lower the pH?

How much spirulina would you have to grow to reduce CO2 levels in your house? My house regularly reaches CO2 levels over 1000ppm.
