Trich it is....sorry man.  The yellowing the greening is all things i have had happen before destroy it before it gets real bad or go bury it.




Although it pains me a little to say it, I think this guy's right with this assessment. That looks like trich developing. Are the "hyphal knots" you're referring to clustered and kind of shiny/glossy and bright white? If so, that's going to explode into green in a day or so. I would find it hard to believe that brief early exposure to air is going to cause an outbreak of that magnitude. You probably had a contaminated substrate, so go back and double check your pasteurisation method.




LLama, this is for you as well im not trying to be a smart ass just educate ya.

" I have never recommended running a fan in a room with a shotgun terrarium.  In fact, it defeats the purpose and disables the natural functioning of the terrarium design.  A shotgun terrarium depends on the natural circulation of air.  You should keep a window open somewhat to exchange the stale air in the room with fresh air.

As for trich, it loves stale air, and it loves still air. Trich also loves wet surfaces, uncolonized surfaces, and exposed grain on the surface, whether or not they are colonized already with mushroom mycelium.

It isn't an either/or scenario.  You want fresh air, AND moving air.  Both will help to fight molds and promote mushroom growth.  The main reason we air out our grow areas is to stimulate pinning and fruit development, which can't happen in CO2 laden air.  The fighting molds aspect is a side-benefit.

Mushroom mycelium can tolerate a high CO2 level.  However, it doesn't stimulate it to pin.  For pinning you want a low CO2 level, not more than twice ambient.  If there's a dozen or more substrates in a closed up closet, the CO2 level will go to 5,000 ppm within a few hours, even if there is a fan going.  The air is still stale, just moving.
