first mono- is this contam?
    #14725752 - 07/06/11 12:51 PM (13 years, 6 months ago)

I'm doing my first monotub grow, and it was moderately successful.  I opened the tub today to harvest some of the bigger ones that had shed their veils, and I noticed this dark brown all over the top of the substrate.







I'm still in the training wheels stage of learning to grow, so I panicked and figured it was a type of contamination.  So I pulled out all the pins and some mushrooms that probably still had a day or so left before full maturation.

Then it occurred to me that maybe it isn't necessarily a contam :facepalm3:
Are these just dropped spores?  Or is it a contamination?  In either of the two cases, how should I proceed?
