Gray stuff on the surface of ecuadorian growbox
    #14327230 - 04/21/11 11:02 AM (12 years, 9 months ago)

Dear Shroomers,

First of all: Hi, I'm new and I hope I'm not posting against any rules. I looked through the forum as well as possible but couldn't find anything on my subject, this specific.

I'll try to keep it short but clear.

My first flush with a normal room temperature (20c) and spraying a bit of water in every 1-2 days resulted in this:


Now the temperature has risen outside and my room is quite warm also (around 25c+ day time). Since I was told that watering the shrooms every 1-2days is excessive I only watered them every 3-4 days now and I have a concern about how 'lifeless' the shrooms look and possible contamination... weird gray stuff:


Pic of the unmotivated flush:


If any more info is needed I'll be happy to supply it. I'm just not sure whether I should leave the box and wait it out about a week or that I'm possibly killing it if I do so.

Any input is welcome. Thanks for your time :smile:

well, I don't know what the instructions say, but every few days ain't enough to water it in my experience. I spray at least 2 times a day. Those mush have bacterial blotch(pseudomonas sp.)thats caused by leaving the caps wet. Make sure you fan until they are dry. I can't get a good look at your fuzz, but cobweb is likely. 2 infections

Thanks for your response!

There's no clear instruction on the watering, sadly.

I understand that I should keep the humidity a lot lower, so I'll refrain from spraying the coming days. Is there any chance this stuff will go away or will it permanently destroy my flush or even box?

I believe, when looking at it, it has lessened a bit but overall humidity is still high so I'll try to make the box dry a tad without enforcing contamination.

It seemed to have lessened and may fully disappear.

Part of the shrooms are growing really quick again (like they should), bot others are still rather dark coloured and look depressed; not sure what to do with those.

In any case, can this still be a successful flush? Will the possible contaminations stay in the box and destroy future flushes?

Thanks for answering in advance :smile:
