LATE in the night on day 3 I become desperate for an increase of bubbles and add prepackaged yeast.

Not a lot- hardly any at all actually. The picture illustrates the minute amount added...

Do I regret it? No. Do I feel guilty? A little.

Anyway, I woke up a while later and found that the bubbles had increased immensely.

My mix has fermented and smells sour and lovely! All thanks to a tiny pinch of yeast to move those airborne slowpokes along.

Next step- feeding and preparing the starter for completion.

Good luck! I am rooting for you. The last time I tried this was a long ways back, and it didn't go as well as I had hoped. You've inspired me to try again.
