how to grow with mold
    #15926956 - 03/09/12 10:03 PM (12 years, 10 months ago)

so I just found mold on in my fruiting chamber.. i saw it a couple days ago but wasn't sure if it was mold. it was white and didn't look like mycelium. but I just now checked and it was turning green.

I don't really think I will be growing in the room it's in now again so I am going to try to save it instead of throwing it out.

it was almost all colonized except for the top and that is where the mold was and on he sides some too.

I cut about an inch off of the top and some places on the sides and dabbed it with some rubbing alcohol. I flipped over the block of mycelium and put it back in. anything else I can do to increase the chances of it fruiting?

like I said I know I should throw it out but I don't really plan on growing where i am now again so doesn't really matter if mold spores get all over.. which its kinda to late since I already took it out and cut parts off.

I recently got some mold contamination of a tray. I poured a heaping pile of salt on the mold before it even sporulated. Now 2 days later the salt has washed away enough to see the surface again and the mold hasn't sporulated for the most part so it seems it worked. It at least stopped it long enough for the flush to finish.

well it already turned green before I did anything since I wasn't even sure if it was mold. and it hasn't started pinning yet either im trying to get it to now.
