contaminated?
    #20244490 - 07/08/14 08:24 PM (10 years, 6 months ago)

So yea... 1 of 6 bags (1/2 pint bags) is showing contamination. should I chuck the bag or give the mycelium a chance to fight back? I read a thread here some where that the mycelium can bounce back. the substrate that's visible on the top has a green moldy looking growth to it, maybe a green hue? aside from the 2 small patches of green.



1 other bag has a very light brownish orange hue on parts of the mycelium but I think it's fine, ill keep an eye on it

Then I was like.... what was I talking about again?

I'd toss it outside and hope it fruits since you still have 5 good ones.

I stuck it in a shelf down stairs in the kitchen with a door. keeping it there since I can't chuck it outside, 105-110 degrees outside here in the desert. The other 5 are in my bedroom on the same book shelf with no signs of contamination like this one. I sprayed the shelf with a bleach and water solution to be sure it wont spread.

is the bag toxic now? is it safer to throw it out? or it's fine as long as I keep the bag sealed?

so even if the mycelium grows and covers the mold, it will still be there?

are my remaining 5 cakes safe from contam now? 0

now that the mycelium is nearly 100% colonized? or should I still worry?

what are the chances of getting contams?

the contaminated cake had to have been infected over a week ago right?
