mushrooms growing from "contaminated" kit
    #13017078 - 08/07/10 12:57 PM (14 years, 5 months ago)

well i had lost all hope that my filter patch bag kit with compost would yield fruit because of the grey contamination which spread all over the substrate after i put the mycelium into it. But i dumped some hydrogen peroxide in there and it doesnt smell like paint (as much) anymore, and there are mushrooms growing out of it, maturing as we speak. Are these safe for consumption, or is the fact that i put hydrogen peroxide into the substrate mean nothing about the fruits?
*I'll try and get a pic uploaded asap, but for now any common knowledge would be appreciated :smile:

If the veil has broken, then yes they are ready to pick.

and ready to consume :smile: but the grey mold has been overcome im guessing so its safe to say a normal flush will come out of it? here's a pic for better assessment, i just want to be really safe since this is my first time ever doing something like this

Is there any visible mold on the mushroom itself?

i dont think so, i picked the larger ones in that pic and there is a thin layer of white stuff towards the bottom of the stems, but thats about it. how many caps should i take to try them fresh to "make sure they work". i dont have a scale :frown:

You should be able to eat 2 of those bigger ones to see "if they work".

Looks like low humidity based on the cracked caps, you might try misting for better results.

Those mushrooms are safe to eat as long as they aren't moldy.
