They are probably 3 months old if that? I have a video of what it was like when I opened them, not sure if I can upload them or a photo but no scum ontop. I was looking at these buckets maybe to keep air tight.

Have you had them long? I find when they are more than a few months old they don't slime as well

Did it look bubbly any 'fizz' in the water or scum on the top?

I had a smell and no smell of cheese. It’s been in my boiler cupboard too unless my bucket isn’t air tight!? Odd!

Lift the lid and have a smell. If it's a bit cheesy they're past the spunky stage.
If they smell ok/sweet find somewhere a little warmer and wait a bit longer 🙂.

I tried prepping tigers for slime and almost a week now and I can hear the water sloshing - no slime, I haven’t removed the lid just in case, any idea why this would be please? Cheers, Ash.

I will only ever keep enough liquid to just cover the tigers by about 1cm.
But I add the sugar in at the soaking stage.

Do you tip the water away once boiled and pouring into a bucket with lid, or add all
The water as well then the sugar? Is it the moisture inside the nuts only once boiled, that then leaks out of the tigers and mixes with the sugar to make the slime?

Nice one, thank you. That will come in handy for spring and setting little traps in the edge.

Couple of handfuls of dry tigers is the least I have done personally.

Couple of days Ash. Put them next to a radiator

What would be the minimum amount of tigers you could prep and still get slime?

Thanks for the information, how many days would you say to leave it for before you should achieve the slime or ist all trial and error? Just trying to work out how many days it should take before I go to sprays the tigers from the slime and use on a session! Very handy information thanks!
