First Grow: Mycelium or Contam?
    #18720235 - 08/17/13 07:42 PM (10 years, 5 months ago)

I was wondering if everything is looking alright, I used LC for inoculation. All 30 jars are showing the exact same type of growth 3 days after inoculation. To me it looks like weak mycelium, but I'd like second opinions. After inoc I shook them vigorously so I believe that would explain the growth patterns I'm seeing.

The First Two images make the make the myc look grey, but I can assure you it's white. The last jar I sterilized and opened for a 30seconds under a vent to experience a contam.

Any Help would be appreciated.

Well, that's definitely mycelium in the first two jars, though that doesn't necessarily mean they're totally clean.

As to the third, it looks like you dumped sand or really fine verm over the top; was this jar prepared just the same as the other two before exposure to open air? If so, it's most certainly profound contamination.

They where all prepared in the same fashion, I think you're confusing pinmold for fine verm/sand :P

I'm glad you think it's mycelium, I was worried it wasn't.

If you read my post instead of just looking at the pictures you would know I contaminated that jar on purpose and already knew this.

That is a good idea :P Pictures are nice but I guess seeing it for yourself is much better. But as they said before me those first 2 jars look great :smile:

Thank you for the third opinion :wink: I Definitely wanted to see contamination first hand. So glad everything is going so well.

I have some jars with that wispy mycelium as well.  Mine are probably due to over-shaking.  How often did you shake your jars? If you don't mind me asking.

I haven't shaken them since inoculation. I injected my LC and shook, then left them alone. Waiting for 30% colonization before I shake again.

Here are some of the jars 24 hours later
