Reuse contaminated bag?
    #14117652 - 03/14/11 12:56 AM (12 years, 10 months ago)

I have spawn bags that i preped with rye and vacuum sealed, I intended to sterilize them at a later date.. now i looked at them and there was some funky things growing in there and also some pure white mycellium in there too ,even though i did not inoculate the bag with anything.. IS there a way i should go about dumping these bags out so i can reuse them ? Like throwing it the pressure cooker for a bit to kill off molds and then opening the bag and trashing the substrate outside??

if you are limited on bags/funds, what else can you do but try to clean it? if not, put that dirty bag in the recycle bin.

if all that growth occurred after PCing, you may want to reevaluate your techniques. and also, I'm betting your "mycelium" wasn't considering you didn't inoculate your bags.

if you're going to reuse the bag, trash/compost the spawn, clean with hot soapy water, rinse, then start over. the PC stage will clean anything you miss during the soap bath. good luck
