Albino penis envy (red spot on cap?)
    #19260476 - 12/11/13 02:26 PM (10 years, 1 month ago)

First time growing and I may have a problem.  I have a red spot on the cap of the beginnings of a fruit body.  Is this a contamination?  What should I do if it is?

Dihydrogen oxide is the most deadly chemical in terms of deaths per year due to overdoses.  Why is this substance not banned around the world?  Well we need it to survive, my point you ask, moderation is the key, to much of anything is a bad thing, even water can kill you in large amounts.  Don't abuse the substance, but certainly use the substance!

What are you growing them in, what kind of pan is that? It almost looks like some of the redness/rust that just fell on top. I've also never seen any contam like that.
Wait for a more experienced cultivator to chime in.

I'm also curious if you cased these, because it doesn't look 100% colonized.

Wow, that's a lot of rust.  Are you spraying with peroxide, or did you just pick the tray most likely to harbor clostridium?  :rofldrunk:

It does look like a piece of rust fell on the cap of that mushroom.  Can we get a closer look?

Yes I know that's a lot of rust, they were new when I bought them and now I realize that metal is not the way to go.  I have just been spraying with water.  I will post a close up as soon as I can, thanks all.

This is the best pic I can get, they are still very small.  Your insight is very helpful for my first grow.
