Cob web mold cure?
#18424332 - 06/15/13 05:43 PM (11 years, 7 months ago) |

Okay I'm using the PF Tek. My jars are colonizing right now.. One of them may have cob web mold :/ if it does, can I kill it if I put h202 in my water when I dunk them for 24 hours? Will this kill it? And can I still use that cake?
Thanks.

How far along are they colonized? When you make the h2o2 you mix it in a 10:1 ratio. I'm not sure if you should dunk it in the solution, or wait until you birth them and spray them with the solution. If your jars are not very far along you may have to start over.

Anything I post is purely theoretical, and not based in reality. All pictures are from google.
A big part of me has died inside and I don't know if it will ever come back. Nothing makes me happy anymore. I use drugs and alcohol to numb the pain, and my sense of humor to hide the rest. I don't share these feelings with anyone in real life.

I'm not even 100% if its cobweb.. This is my first grow and one of my jars is at about 80% in 8 days.. The rest are around 45-50%. I just wanna be pre cautious.

So after I dunk and roll, wait for the verm to dry on cake, spray every 12 hours with a 10:1 spray? And regular water in between?

I think it would be beneficial to take care of the cobweb before dunking... Do not dunk the contaminated cake with the uncontaminated ones.

don't dilute the peroxide, you can just spray before you dunk. I had major problem after trying to dunk for 12 hours even in a 10:1 solution.

Yeah one sounds like it should be tossed because theres small chance it can be saved, while the rest sound okay

So wait, you got cobweb in a jar that isn't 100% colonized?

If a jar colonizes in 8 days... it isn't cubesis mycelium or whatever your going for, maybe if it was a ostreatus.
Its most likely all cob web

I'm not even 100% sure if its cobweb.. All of my jars are around 60% in 9 days, then I have one jars that's at 80% in 9 days... So I'm just guessing since this is my first grow.

Spray the cake with a 10:1 solution then rinse off and dunk it?

OP - before you start running around spraying peroxide on shit post some pic's. All we can do is speculate based on what you tell us, best thing is show us. We can then tell you if its cobweb, whispy mycelium or anything else. I do have to agree with Boomking though - unless you were using liquid culture if your jar colonizes in 8 days its most likely mold and you're not going to be able to save it.

Don't birth a cake if you think there's mold growing on it. The only reason cobweb is treatable is because it grows only on the surface, not throughout the substrate like whatever mold is your jar. Even dunking a mold susceptible to peroxide isn't going to get rid of it when it's surrounded by organic substrate.
