WBS contam? Not spreading.
    #16180498 - 05/04/12 05:54 AM (12 years, 8 months ago)

Ok. So I started this qt jar on 4/22 with a ms of gt. Had growth within 4 days. Myc looks healthy and is spreading fast! It looks to be about 30% overall. I plan on using this jar for a g2g on 6 other qts then spawning to coir per Damion5050's tek. This will be my first bulk!:grin:

The problem is I spotted a couple of small spots that seem to a possible contam. It appears as a gray fuzz barely covering some of the grains. These spots are isolated to individual grains do not appear to be spreading. In fact they haven't changed at all. Myc on the other hand is fast encroaching on these spots and in a day or two will meet.


It's clearly visible at the bottom-center of the screen.

So my question is should I follow my instincts and toss it? Or could it be something that poses no threat? My concern is that although it appears to not be actively growing, that could change after the g2g or after I spawn, unleashing some gnarly beast all over my coir.

Oh, I need to add that I followed Doc's WBS tek but I pc'ed for 90 min. I also knocked it up in a cardboard SAB (cheap I know) that I had Ousted the ever-loving shit out of. I had on gloves, face mask, air turned off, flamed the needle, etc. I'm not saying that my work area was perfectly clean, but I feel I was sufficiently thorough. But obviously something has to have happened.

dont toss is
thats all good healthy mycelium
thes just a black seed which is y it looks darker
if it was a contam is would be taking over you entire jar real quick
contams spread fast 1 or 2 days a contam will cover the whole jar

I think you're looking at the seed to the left of the area I'm referring to. I re-uped the pic with the area highlighted.

At first I thought that it might just be the first bit of myc reaching it and that maybe it was casting a gray hue because the myc hasn't really thickened yet and the seed surface was still showing.

But, as I said, there has been no change in a couple of days.

I was thinking the same thing about a contam taking over in a matter of days. That's why I'm confused about it.

Plus it's getting close to time for me to shake, so
1) I'm worried if it is a nasty it will surely spread its filth and
2) If I redistribute everything, I won't be able to monitor it anymore
