Question | Are those ready to fruit?
    #19346179 - 12/30/13 12:50 PM (10 years, 1 month ago)

Greetings!
I am new to the popcorn tec'.
It took preety long to get to this point but it looks good enough
My questions are:
1) Are those ready to fruit? (pictures bellow)







2) I don't have access to vermiculite, will rough sawdust do the trick for casing?

3) The one with the wet spots... Should I reduce the temperature, and wait until the mycelium takes over (it seemed to help),  throw it away, or dispose wet parts and fruit as is?

Good day and thanks for the help :mushroom2:

pic 2 is contammed with bacteria, to avoid this in the future make sure to shake your jar up at 30 percent and again if you start seeing overly wet spots, i'd make sure to give your other jars a good sniff

It doesn't matter what i think of you...all that matters is clean spawn

Thanks for the quick reply. so about the contaminated one...
what do I do with it? dispose wet spots and fruit or toss away?

toss it and check your other jars for the same wet/slimy spots and give them a sniff before you use them

Damnit cronicr. Stop responding to everything I could help with before I get to it! lol.

Nah, yeah that second pic looks like its contaminated. Do not fruit it. Just throw it away. You can never "remove" a contaminated portion. Once its in its there to stay most usually.

The other two are lookin good and ready to spawn. Always smell your jars though when you open them before spawning. If you smell anything other than mushrooms there bad.

it's not the smartest thing in the world but I spawned the good looking portions of 9 badly bacteria contaminated 1/2 pint jars of popcorn and WBS to strait coir. I mad it halfway threw the third flush before contams showed up again. it yielded close to a 1/4lb. So it can be done. :shrug:

Really. Thats friggin cool man. Ive tried doing it myself but the contamination showed back up within two days. Tried it twice and then never again. Usually by the time you can see a contamination its already spread throughout your jar/substrate whatever.
