Contaminated Fruits? [pix added]
    #19492465 - 01/29/14 05:07 PM (10 years, 11 months ago)

I have used the BRF cake tek once and have since moved on to rye grain. The problem is that I used up all my spores before I was able to get the prep procedures correct (I watched an old video with some bad info in it). I did manage to inoculate one jar by dropping a piece of cake into it. I ultimately used that jar to inoculate several others (g2g), most of which eventually became contaminated in one way or another. For all I know, each jar has been contaminated from the very first one. I have since acquired more spores and restarted everything.

However, I still have some myc in jars and one tray cased which may or may not be contaminated. If it is contaminated, will they still fruit? If they do, will the fruit be harmful? How can I tell for sure if there even is contam? The myc is not discolored but I am not sure how it even should look since I am new to the rye grain game.

One reason I believed there was a contamination was that there was no fruit on the cased batch and I was about to give it up. However, I have recently found small fruit forming. I thought this was good until someone suggested that if there was contam, they could have negative effects.

Thanks everyone.

I took some but the quality doesn't seem so good. It looks healthy in the pix, from what I know. I will try to get better ones.

yea its tough to say without good pictures... especially when it comes to someones well-being haha!

I dont know man, its your call.  I know if you have Trich, its SOMETIMES ok to eat the fruits.  I would say if they smell and look ok, and arent rotten or anything, eat them
