2 Contaminated quart jars
    #14186138 - 03/26/11 10:34 AM (12 years, 10 months ago)

So out of the 24 quarts I started 2 have contammed with a darkish grayish colored mold, the upside is the mycelium seems to be taking it over. Now i dont plan on spawning these to my tubs with the rest of the jars and im not even shaking these jars because i dont want to give the unwanted mold the chance to spread around more so my question is should I just let these fruit invitro?

if they do somehow happen to get taken over by mycelium once fully colonized give a good shake and wait a few days, to see if healthy mycelium grows back or if it gets taken over...

if healthy mycelium comes back then you're good to go.

Well Im not gonna waste a perfectly good quart Jar so should I cook it in my PC then empty it outside?

One of my PF cakes contam'd with black mold. this is like a grayish color/ This is no bueno, Im guessing I have black & gray mold somewhere in my house. Should I scrub around the entire house with bleach water? or is there anything else I can do

Only thing that gets me is how only 1 of 10 PF jars contam'd and so far only 2 of 24 have contam'd? Not that im complaining I would not want ALL my jars to contam i just wonder how the mold got in the other 2

Black / Grey molds are neurotoxins.

Sterilize, discard contents, and reuse the jar.

So i decided to shake it the same day you posted this, just to see how deep the contam was, it was pretty deep and there was black all in the jar but the Mycelium has been literally DEVOURING every sign of contaminates.

Im kinda thinking I might have burned the popcorn because I loaded my PC with 2 extra jars on top(which ill never do again) the the foil on the jars they were sitting on got burned. and even some of the polyfil underneath was burned so I think the jars that were laid sideways on top might have got burned inside thus causing some kinda contaminate, makes sense to me sense only 2 jars of the entire 24 contams

looks good, once fully colonized give it one more shake, and if it recovers well then go ahead and use it

We all lay jars sideways on top every day, I'm about to do it right now.
I don't think that's how your foil got burned, I think there's a more serious issue.

... and if nobody else said it, ditch popcorn and get rye and you won't have these problems.

You make it all possible. Doesn't it feel good?

Yeah i do 10 jars in a 22 quart presto, which means 3 on their side on top.

And yeah popcorn is a tough grain to sterilize completely. Not to mention it's ridiculously expensive to use as spawn.

well i mean its gotta be from that it wasnt like it before PCing and i noticed it as soon as I took the top 3 jars I had sideways off, only jars with burnt foil and polyfill was the ones the jars were resting on top of

Im going to continue to search my area for rye just saw a store the other day I think carries the bulk grains I need.
