Keep on trying and take your notes it's hard to wade through such a mountain of info and come out sure of something but once you get it once you will know what your looking for !

I agree 100% with Rubestoad. If you want to know where you are having an problem, make a journal and write it all down. Then you can reread it later and find the variable. I still think that the Large Wide Mouths are going to have some late game problems. I would consider not putting them in the TIT.

They are all half quart. Contamed in top pics are regular half quarts, took a while to locate some wide mouth.

Hey Guys so here's some updated pics.

The growth is semi translucent, almost foggy:confused:  There are no odd colors, any specs you see is the vermiculite as the growth has pulled away from the jar a bit.  The growth is white and say it looks whispy would not be inaccurate - as much as I hate to say it.  What do you think - monokaryotic myc. or something less favorable ?



The pics are of 3 jars only, the orange (one jar only) tinted shots are in a different room with diff. spectrum lighting. - brighter shots are of two others.

images are one week from the previous pics posted - total I believe they are in the 3-4 week range...We keep our thermostat around 65 so growth is not super fast

Hey guys,  Here are the latest pics - let me know what you think...

6 of the 7 pics are of latest inocculation ~4-5 weeks ago - those are the wide mouth jars, and the same as the most recent pics I put up.  You will also see one pic of regular mouth 1/2 pint Jar -  The regular mouth jar has been sitting in my cold garage for months - I included it as reference.  I know it is contam'd however there is a stark difference between the growth in the new jars and the isolated spot in regular mouth jar which I beleive is true rhizomorphic mycellium (what I beleive looks more like thick yogurt as opposed to whispy cotton ball like..  The difference in appearance is what concerns me, any input greatly appreciated

That last picture looks scary, I would not birth that thing next to your other jars. Isolate that guy in a little mini mono with some perlite. I do not believe cobweb has a smell, but if it looks wispy like that it is definitely cobweb mold. You can make up a solution of Hydrogen Peroxide and water, and try using that to spray the cake with. I am not sure the ratio of peroxide to water. I have only had one cake go cobweb, and this was after it's 3rd flush so I tossed it.

the last cake wont be birthed its just there as reference to show that one healthy looking spot next to the new cakes growth characteristics.  I know the last pic is contammed for sure just trying to verify that the previous 6 look normal
