This thread was moved from The Pub.

Reason:
Better suited here.  The Pub is more of a, "hey what's up?" kind of forum.

It doesn't matter in this case.

Yes, your cakes were bad. We can't say for sure what it was without pics though. For future reference, do NOT sniff jars that are visibly contaminated. You might have given yourself a nasty lung infection by doing that. You only smell jars if you can't visually see a contam but can tell something is off.

Should I let them continue and see if the mycelium overtakes the mold or toss them and start out fresh? Thank you both for answering!!




Absolutely not. Throw it out immediately. The only contam worth fighting is Cobweb, and only on your bulk substrate.

No it doesn't. Lipstick is red, hence the name.

I have encountered purple bacteria (not mold); the rotten-apple smell suggests bacteria as well. Not that this changes what you need to do.

Damn. 0 for 9 on my first try. Thanks for the heads up



Probably a bad syringe with a 100% contamination rate like that but being your first grow it's possible you made a mistake somewhere.

A noticeable mistake in the pic is you put the foil back on after you inoculated them. The foil is to keep water out during sterilization. When left on it can lead to the dry vermiculite layer, which keeps contaminants out when dry, getting damp.

i read above that he flame sterilized his syringe needle, and let it cool for 24 hours. that means he either left it out, un cased for 24 hours, or didn't re sterilize before inoculation.

you only need to wait a few seconds after flame sterilization, the liquid in the syringe, and he fact that the metal is so thin cools it almost instantly.

Have you had experience with it before? I've had it in Purple, Red and a very light red on edibles. Please.. before you try to make connections between something or call me out, learn a little.
