Green mold? (1st time cultivator)
    #20311335 - 07/22/14 02:54 PM (9 years, 8 months ago)

I've developed a small greenish spot in one of my jars.  I have removed it from the rest of jars just in case, but was curious if anyone would be able to help identify what this is.  Should I toss it?

I'm using the same type of jars as the OP as I was unable to find the short fat ones being sold at any of the stores near me. What is the big advantage of the short and fat ones outside of what I would assume to be easier removal from the container?

They colonize faster other than that really none as far as I've seen. But remember they also hold less material so you gotta use 2 times the # of jars.

Yeah man, I'm pissed!  lost what looks like 4 jars to it and removed them from the the other 14 which are still lookin' pretty good.  Keeping my fingers crossed.

Next time I'm going to make a glove box :mad:

Right on, I was wondering the same thing. I notice most people are using the smaller jars but I figured what the hell, more volume = more yield.  This is my first time, and next time I'll know better and crank out some bitchin' batches.

Thanks all, really appreciate all of the feedback I'm getting from everyone on this site.

Haha, for sure.  I've been using a 22qt pressure cooker I picked up from this guy on craigslist for $35.  Shit was a steal.  I can fit 16 of the 1 pint jars in there at a time.  :grin:

The reason you want the smaller jars is because TALL jars tend to stall toward the bottom, and not being equal height and width means that they can take quite a while longer to colonize.  Mycelium takes days to move a centimeter, how much taller is the tall jar than the wide short ones?  Do them maths.


Longer colonization times= greater chance of contamination

The goal of the colonization stage is to rig the race for the mushrooms to beat out all the other spores that will inevitably be in there even though you sterilized.
