Ergot in my spawn ???
    #14491328 -

I started a spawn jar 3 days ago, I was looking for mycelium and found this.

Here is actual mycelium.

It is soaked and sterilized, so it's dead.

If it wasn't already sterile you could put it on some agar or something.

This is a good read on ergot:
http://www.botany.hawaii.edu/faculty/wong/bot135/lect12.htm

Yeah, dont eat the sclerotia, it is poisonous.  But save for any chemitry friends that want to synth some LSD for you.

It's probably a seed pod or a dead grain or something. But who knows?

Ergot is a very toxic fungus that could even kill you.
Morning Glory seeds if untreated and fresh, they should not be too terrible for you.

Ergot contains very poisonous alkaloids along with LSD like ones, giving you a trip to hell basically. 

I am 100% sure that these 'pods' are the infected kernels of rye made into the sclerotia.  Pics are a dead on match from what I found in my grain last night.

Well you cant eat it that is for sure, but I am going to see if I can connect with someone down the line of friends that knows a chemist that might be interested in acquiring ergot mycellium.  Should be able to rehydrate sclerotia, bust apart, and colonize on some antibiotic agar and isolate...
