Need answers to 3 questions please
    #16184931 - 05/05/12 05:57 AM (12 years, 8 months ago)

#1- One of my mini trays on its 3rd flush was attacked by mold yesterday. It had a few full grown mushies on it. It was quickly removed from the FC and I picked all the mushies. The mold was not on any of them and no discoloring of any sort are they still safe?

#2- I've built a custom FC for an experiment. The FAE will be controlled by filtered air pumps on timers. Should the end of the hoses for the air pumps be on the bottom, sides or top of the FC?

#3- On the bottom of my Ecotent(greenhouse tent) I lay a 4inch layer of perlite to prevent water from pooling and breeding bacteria orgies. I've been spraying the perlite every other day with 10% h2o2 and 90% water mix to prevent contam. Is this ok or will there be any adverse affects? Is the % ok for the mix or should I be using something else?

Thank you for all info! :mushroom2:

the mushies are fine to eat.  prolly trich,which is not a dangerous mold to consume in small quantities.  Never eat mold that is black! but green is fine

would be best for the air to come out the bottom if possible, but your trays will be in the bottom, so maybe low side.  squirrel fans work great for fae as well.  bubbling thru water does filter the air but it is impossible to keep your chamber sterile no matter what you do. 

THe h2o2 will not harm the fungi, unless you spray it right on the myc.  when it reacts with any biological organism it makes nothing more than oxygen and water. In between grows, consider bleach bombing 10% or use straight h2o2 on your perlite.  I like to change mine periodically as well as a precaution.  ANd be careful of miracle grow perlite which has added nitrogen.
