Ya know that nice 'earthy' smell that gardeners love so much? It's a combination of trichoderma(mold) and actinomycetes(bacteria), which inhabit nearly every square inch of soil on earth. Gardeners can even order trichoderma cultures to make their garden soil perform better.
While these may be 'contaminants' to sterile procedure, they're harmless to humans or most of the food we eat, including wild mushrooms, would be toxic. If you guys don't know the answer to something, please don't just make shit up. RR

Roger,
I don't think anyone in this thread made anything up about Trichoderma itself being dangerous. (I jokingly made up a warning label about "Do not drink Toxic mushroom tea" but never implied that Trich itself was dangerous.)
The point I was trying to make, is especially someone such as yourself that has to answer numerous questions with less than desireable details, would also see that we have to take the OP's word for it that the contaminant was even Trich to begin with. "Was most likely grown in a trich infected substrate/casing." In fact, the only person (other than my fake warning label said in jest) that used the word "toxic" or "toxin" was the OP.
Everyone appreciates the knowledge drop for sure, and many, myself included, learned something from your post. But I think if we tell someone to just go ahead and drink it when we have no idea if the OP is even offering accurate information isn't as good of advice as saying "better to be safe than sorry" in essense. Give people an inch, and they take a mile, you know?
