purple contam on my perlite
    #15914291 - 03/07/12 02:32 PM (12 years, 10 months ago)

I thought perlite didnt grow anything.  I think this grow is nearing its end anyway.  Most of my cakes are tiny now.  Sooooo, what should i do about the contam?  Its safe to harvest the existing mushrooms isnt it?  Sorry about picture quality.  I was afraid to leave the lid off for any amount of time.

:lol:

That's all over your cake too!


..but not to worry, it doesn't look like a contaminant.  One of your mushrooms simply sporulated before you managed to pick it.  That is the aftermath (a big pile of spores).

That totally makes sense!  My wife takes care of them while i work out of town.  She told me that she let some develop extra long before picking them a couple of days ago.  Thanks man.  I was ready to chuck the whole tub, LOL

The best time to pick them is just as the veils are breaking. The mushroom's veil is that thin membrane that covers the gills. If you want to make some spore prints then let a few caps open up a bit more- but they will sporulate all over the place.
