What is this white stuff?

First time growing and all of my jars got contaminated except for one lol. Anyways as you can see the last cake looks good but I noticed this white fluffy stuff growing at the bottom stems of the mushrooms. It is the big mushroom that's facing downwards. Help would be appreciated.

Well nice work on that cake dude. glad to hear atleast you have one survivor :smile:

what was your sterilization procedure ?

also the white at the base of the stems is just Mycelium from the cake.

Ive heard of alot more growin on the stem then that so your good.

Thanks, I was worried for a moment. I didn't have a real sterilization procedure until all the other jars got contaminated, just pc cooked the substrate jars. Since then, I began wiping the incubator clean with lysol everyday. So if mycelium starts to grow on the fruits, wouldn't it end up eating itself?

Uhm i think increased fanning stops the fuzz from growing on the bottoms, so up your fanning like 30 percent more or something.

and no not that i know of, not to mention mushrooms when they are actually mushrooms grow pretty fast so its not like it will have alot of time lol


PC the jars at 15psi for 90 minutes , and you are good dude

also micro-pore tape from the medical section at walmart/walgreens / drug store. does wonders as a filter for the holes on the jar lids.

personally i used polyfil but i havnt done the PF tek.

also i hear that half inch of dry vermiculite between the substrate and the jar holes works just fine.
if you watch the "lets grow mushrooms" series on youtube it will cover it.
