Saving casing despite green mold?

A tiny patch of green. Can I save this casing somehow? I am searching for answers.

you can hit it with alcohol, but the mold is deeper then just the outside,
You can cut out the mold as long as you go beyond what is contamed. You can rinse away any left over substrate that isnt colonized my mycelium. But it is just a cake. You would be lucky to 7 dried grams off of it

Tossing it is the right answer. You can't cut 'green mold' out of cased substrates. You only see the part that turns green, the sporulating mycelium on the surface. Below, the entire substrate might be over ran with trichoderma mycelium. Never try to cut out mold from a substrate-it only spreads it around, making the problem worse for future grows.

It's tossed.  I have 12 jars colonizing nicely right now, so I still have hope.  :smile:

the casing is doomed. just like a jar with contams you can never truly save it.

i may just be rebelious, but one of my first casings had a patch of green mold, i chopped it in half a few inches from the mold and got lucky!

i covered the exposed side with some tinfoil and of course i separated it from the rest asap. but it did save some of it atleast! ^_^

Looks like mold is growing on the cut side.

The issue is not so much whether or not a contaminated casing will fruit, but how many mold spores will be expelled into your grow area in the process...
