Possible contam? (cobweb?)
    #21326393 - 02/25/15 03:01 AM (9 years, 10 months ago)

So I've been getting this funny smell from some of my colonizing bulk containers, it kinda smelled like yeast, a fermented smell.  Now I've realised there are some mold-like formations on the surfaces.  Here are the pics:

This is the one that most definitely looks like cobweb:


And this is the same container's lid:


This is another one that looks and smells suspicious:


And these do not smell or look contammed to me, they smell like fresh mushrooms but I'd still like some opinions cuz I see some white spots on the walls of the containers:

That first pic doesn't look good. If that spreads over everything in 24-48 hours you will know for sure. Isolate them though.

what about extracting the contaminated part; it seems to be only on the surface?

First pic is cobweb.
I've had it. Spray it with H202 and get some air in your environment.

No idea what that second pic is.

Third pic looks like cube myc to me.

Containers look fine.

Cobweb:

I don't think you have trich.

That's a relief for sure.. How much hydrogen peroxide should I add to the mixture, like %10 H202 %90 water?

I'd do 20, give it a light misting spray and the cobweb will sizzle and disappear.

Cobweb usually appears when you have insufficient gas exchange.

Yes, that might be the case since it only appeared in containers that I keep in an incubator with it's lid closed.
