whats this here white stuff growin upon me caps?
    #15532979 - 12/17/11 11:10 PM (12 years, 6 months ago)

just wondering what this white stuff growing on my caps is... or was. i tried searching & folks were saying they were getting rid of theirs & others saying to make sure not to take a prints from them
the main reason for the white spots i have been reading is high humidity (i was thinking probably from drops of water sticking to pins)

SOOO I took a small piece of toilet paper and gently ran it across a cap to attempt to dry it a bit & the white spots slid right off... all of them. what in the world? heres a before & after picture

I'm gonna be optimistic and say that it's just verm chunks + bad lighting + poor picture quality.

i blame that on doing a drunk tek with my first grow, birthing early because of a stall, & not having propper lighting for the first week of birthing - no green there.

He's suggesting it's a contaminate myc. I disagree. I have a cake that I can take a pic of right now with similar myc but covered in pins. It only showed up cause I forgot to fan for a day or two, and it has been receeding ever since I increased the fanning... I've never had a contam that started out like that, so I can't say for sure, but I've seen myc that looked like that on my cakes, and it has always been harmless.

that was growing without any caps showing for the first week of birthing im pretty sure because i had poor lighting on my fruiting chamber. the day after lighting was the day before i put these up... so yesterday & its what the caps instantly started appearing from

ordered the spores from the hawks eye by the way, should be B+.

& i know i SHOULD have waited to birth them but im going out of town next week & wanted to have some grown by then to get some prints to colonize more jars while im gone

it is possible though, you didn't let your cake fully colonize and that makes it a risk to contams, and it might take over your cake, if it is a contam... i understand.
