I got raw honey and left it 50% in the jar then filled the rest with water its been a few weeks now its fully liquid
Now am I supposed to open it once every few days for oxygen? Or keep it shut until I use it

Thatโ€™s gonna make the honey moldy by adding water to it

50% water sounds like a lot. Is it bubbling?

No but theres white shit floating around
I realized it should be 1:8 ratio later on but too late to do anything about it

The point of honey is that it doesnโ€™t mold due to its low water content by adding water it will go bad but Iโ€™m not too sure

Maybe shitty pasteurized honey,, If its raw honey especially fermented it should kill the mold from the bacteria in it

Give it a stir then smell, youโ€™ll know if itโ€™s off

How do you ferment honey, I didnโ€™t know that was a thing.

This is what i could find for plain honey without anything else. If you want to actually get high from it you have to do it for a while though

Shake it around and open it and stir it everyday for 2 weeks. After 2 weeks the fizz should subside and you seal it shut and let it sit for a month at least and you get really good mead after 2 months fermentation.

It smells like honey and beer. But not too strong of an alcohol smell since i put way too much fucking water
Honestly just give it a taste put it in your mouth and if itโ€™s foul split it out but it doesnโ€™t sound like itโ€™s gone off

Ideally should be 1/5 honey, 4/5 water. Don't use carbonated water it kills bacteria and ruins fermentation, if you're using carbonated make sure to shake out the carbonation before hand.
