Cottony Mold, or mycelium?
    #14566294 - 06/05/11 08:16 PM (12 years, 7 months ago)

This is my first spawn, I am getting this cottony stuff on the top and all throughout the substrate, white or a very light gray.  My other bags seem to be progressing normally, but this one is turning white much faster.

It's probably trichoderma. quarentine it for now, but I would say within 4 days you will see green sporulation in the bag.

I can see some greenish tint on that last picture, might just be the photo.

Ya, I'd say any greenish tint is just a trick of the light.  This stuff is cottony and "puffing" out of top of the rye berries.  Does trichoderma turn from "whitish cotton" to a solid green, or is it a solid white to a solid green?

It's hard to tell from the pics, but some of the white seems to be mycellium, and the cottony stuff is similar in color but a little bit different.  I guess that's not normal, then?

my buddy's grain jars always look like that.

rather, the top 1/2 inch or so of grain looks like that.

the mycelium puffs out all crazy at the top of his jars.

also, i remember seeing a few grains that got stuck on the side of the jar by themselves. the myc covering them was very, very puffy

but like dude said, if its trich, you'll see green soon enough >.<
