Damnit! threw a bacterial contam jar in my tub....
    #19141866 - 11/15/13 05:42 PM (10 years, 2 months ago)

i think....
all my jars looked great at a glance.
i broke them all up and they all smelled fine. 
i wasnt really paying attention at how the broke up. 

i got to one jar, that was still very chunky.  consolidated pretty much.

after i shook a few chunks out was when i noticed it.

im wondering if it might have just been an older jar that got in the mix somehow.  however, i went to smell it, and it pretty much smelled like good ol mush, but, just a tad spoiled.  might of been in my head though.  but i dot think so.  i figured at that point if it was, it was too late anyway so i just made the tub anyway.  it looked like healthy myc, just wouldnt break up.  was almost gelatiny.  anyhoo, im wondering, if the lot of the rest of the jars, and the myc taking hold, might prohibit this one jar of taking hold.  or am i pretty much screwed.  aside from advice and accounts from experience i gather only time will tell.  :feelsbadman:

:shrug:
When things don't turn out as expected, we get an education.

The smell and gelatin sounds bad.

Good luck.

:whathesaid: I have had bacterial spawned subs still produce fruits. Not ideal, keep an eye on it, but ya still might see some fruits :thumbup:

Shit, a while back I did a hpoo tray that started to show a little penicillin at the edge mid spawn run. I left it to see what would happen. It colonized over the mold quite well and I tossed it in the FC. Got 3 flushes before I pitched it to make room. Never did see the penicillin again, for the most part I was pretty happy. IMO a little bacterial contam ain't worth tossing a whole sub. Just keep an eye on it, if it gets real nasty or you see molds or green then pitch it.

thanks.  i mean, aside from it just being truth, i appreciate the encouragement of it possibly not being a total loss.  i think i recall knowing that a bacterial can still produce a flush.  would it be unwise to keep it in the vicinity of my other tubs?
or is a bacterial just local to said tub?

Most bacteria spread through direct contact. Molds are your main airborne concern. It should be fine, just keep an eye on it. If the bacteria weakens the colonization enough it is possible that some molds might move in and set up shop.

well, it was lookin good until i checked today.  i havent checked for a couple of days other than kind of from afar.  today i got in close and saw this.  i moved the tub away from the others for the picture. 

i have an area secluded from the rest of my tubs where i can maybe fruit this.  it wont be as warm but should stay around 62-67.  do you think there is a chance of it still producing, or should i just chuck it.

at first glance i thought it was just metabolites.  but when i got closer i noticed what almost looked like aerial mycelium, however, a tad more fuzzy in some spots.  maybe cobweb?  is cobweb bacterial?

Cobweb is mold and I don't see any in those pics. You do have a shitload of metabolites, but that alone does not confirm contamination. You do have some weaker mycelium there but again this does not conclusively prove anything. How does it smell?

looks like alot of metabolites.
if your myc is excreting that much it is probably trying to fight off alot of a contam.
personally id give it FAE now and keep it around for another week or 2 and see if you get any fruit.
best luck:cookiemonster:

it smells just fine actually.  doesnt smell overly like mushrooms, but, then again, i never notice a pungent mushroomy smell from my sub untill they start producing fruits.  maybe i just dont have a very strong sense of smell?  however, i dont smell anything nasty either.  i just took some better pics in the natural light.  hopefully you can gain a better idea by lookin at these of what im dealing with? 
and those closeups are of the more fuzzy aerial mycelium i was talking about.  hopefully clearer.  i really need to get an actual camera.  phone camera just doesnt do stuff justice.  that or i have a shaky hand.
or both....

i looked at it earlier today for the first time since fruiting about 10 or 11 days ago and.....HOLY SHIT! :awesome:

honestly, ive never seen more primordia and baby pins before in my life!

it certainly has some kind of bacterial contam, and i gather maybe why its lookin like its gonna pump out a serious flush.  possibly wont stick around for much of a second, but if these primordia and baby pins to fizzle out, im in for a serious treat!

pics to commence asap....
