grain test in bucket
    #19252451 - 12/09/13 08:42 PM (10 years, 1 month ago)

so about 2 weeks ago i tested out this grain jar with some coir in a bucket to see what was up with it, the grain jar had a sour smell to it when it was fully colonized so i shook the jar up and let it colonize fully again took another smell of it and the sour smell was gone, these are some pics of the bucket, im thinking its contamed since it hasnt fully colonized yet or maybe it hasnt fully colonized yet due to low temps at night but no lower than 65.

what do you guys think?

It sounds to me (I don't know crap but I have read lots on here) like the grain jar was contaminated (sour smell).
Then the mycelium might have kicked its ass when you shook the grain jar.

How does the bucket smell? If it has the same sour smell I would get rid of it.

Maybe it's just the glare but it looks like it's started pinning. See little knots forming?

I've read that a spawn jar can harbor contamination whilst still growing mycelium.
