First timer, possible cobwebs or other mold?
    #21286153 - 02/17/15 12:20 AM (9 years, 10 months ago)

My friend is teaching me how to grow, so I myself am not very knowledgeable (at all ha).  We inoculated our jars 2 weeks ago with vermiculite and brown rice flour.  Also, we used an older spore syringe he had (maybe a year old idk).  After about a week I started to just see something. Four days later my jars are completely white, some more grey, with what my friend says is maybe too wispy. Advice/opinions appreciated :grin:

Also, if it's cobweb will i need to decontaminate the storage bin my jars are in?

full growth in 4 days from the first sign isnt good, and it doesnt look rhizomorphic like it usually would.

keep letting it colonize, keep a close eye on it for any discolouration. Likely someone more experienced will suggest that when its 100% 'colonised' to open the jar and sniff it. if it smells shroomy its good. if its odorless, sour or grossly sweet, you likely have issue

honestly though, you could be okay - it seems white and looks like it might be okay. If you used >1cc of spore syringe to start the jar it could have allowed a pretty quick growth once germinated. Best case scenario, in a week or so the cake will start to shrink from the glass slightly and you might see some pinning. not all mycelium grows the same, so a lack of green/orange/black in the jar is a good sign

Bacteria. And a lot of it. Empty jars outside and wash with soap and water. Start over. Next time take foil off jars.

I originally wasn't thinking bacterial as posted, but you said it took 2 weeks just to notice any growth, and then within 4 days it was full?

If that's true, then I'd think contam.  Do what azur said.

It's has been 2 weeks as of now, it only took 1 for it to start growing.  I'll wait to see what my friend thinks.
