Cottony and Rhyzo or contam?? Please help.
    #17302370 - 11/29/12 10:29 AM (12 years, 1 month ago)

So, this is from my first grow and I couldn't see all of the top layer until I opened the bag. >_< So I come to you all hoping you can tell me if this is just the good mycelium just looking weird or if it is something I should worry about. Pretty sure the smell is the normal mushroom smell but as I don't have much to compare it to I am not sure. :undecided: As you can see in the pictures it is pinning a lot and is about 90% colonized..... which leads me to believe it is possible contam but then again it could just be that I accidentally initiated pinning from having too much day time light in the cultivation area.









Your help will be greatly appreciated.

No, this is not the cause. Light is a secondary pinning trigger. Full colonization of available substrate, fresh air, and surface evaporation are the major pinning triggers. Your tub will not pin from light if the major pinning triggers have not been provided/met.

What kind of substrate is that? If that's another BRF bag I would remove all that uncolonized substrate immediately or it will contaminate now that the bag has been opened.

It is indeed a BRF bag. I rinsed off all the unused substrate before dunking it, then re-washed it.

Thanks for the help guys! It has been dunked and is now happily living in my SGFC.
