That is not only for mac, there is a PrtScrn button on every keyboard that does the same thing.
I'm aware. I was just referencing how he phrased it.

Don't feel too bad, your 'failed grow' yielded the same as my 1st flush...just finished drying and weighing and its 18grams. Man I hope the second flush does better...
Who knows exactly why it contam'd.. . The open air syringe does sound risky...but wouldn't you notice the contam in your spawn when it's fully colonized and you open the jars? Can it 'lay dormant'? Lot of people around here say to pasteurize and skip the bucket tek so that's what I did. My underacheiver tub appears to be due to using multispore to innoc and daytime temps being 90+ degrees in my house for the last 2 weeks. Everytime I open the lid it smells wonderful though, so fingers crossed progress marches on!
I didn't even think of taking a screenshot to get rid of exif data So simple!

Yeah Im gonna pasteurize properly next time. I don't think the contam came from the spawn.

I had another one contam today.
 
Only got a few little premature shrooms from it. I'm thinking that that bucket coir tek isn't working so well for me. Mold definitely seems to be the cause of the premature pinning. Since both contammed about a day after fruiting conditions I'm beginning to believe that the FAE is helping the mold along. So I think I will be letting the pinheads grow further before introducing fruiting conditions like I did on the first tub, so at least I can harvest more weight before having to dispose them because of right now.
As with my other tubs, only one of the 4 left colonizing doesn't show any signs of premature pinning anywhere on it. I have high hopes that this will be the tub to provide a significant yield.
The other tub in fruiting conditions doesn't show signs of contam yet. fingers crossed!

The tub in fruiting is still growing and not contaminated! 
These others tubs have some serious side pinning going on, but I'm just gonna let them set for a bit.
 
Now how do you guys pasteurize coir and vermiculite? I have 40 jars but they all half these huge holes in them. Is that a problem?

Also my electric pressure cooker only fits 2 quart jars so I guess I will have to buy something bigger. I need to any way after all the FUN of sterilizing all those 40 jars.
And before anyone says lid holes that big will cause FAE, I have had these in open air in my kitchen for about a month fully colonized and no pins. So I guess it's fine.

Waiting for a fruit to clone. I don't want to buy a syringe.
