Mycogone aka "Wet Bubble"
    #21545522 -

A few months ago I brought back a variety from a spore print by via agar transfers. Everything went as usual
through the transfers, colonizing the grain, and the grain transfers. Well after I spawned it I took a whiff after
full colonization it smelled like the hard liquor. Now I'm sick.. couldn't sleep last night... sore throat, runny nose,
nasty feeling all over -- that kind of shit.

                                                         

After asking my buddy he said it might be verticillium, but that he never associated it with the alcohol smell. I've got
3 tubs of it I moved over to the bathroom before I went to bed & they all have strange mutanty looking growths with
these liquid dots all over them. Anyone have any ideas??

Yeah after looking at some pics in the search that does look like that's what I'm looking at... pretty weird that I never saw
anything out of the ordinary on the agar. I set 2 bags aside last night as well that were starting to look funky at full colonization.
Same strain so I'm leaning towards the agar plates being the source.

Never heard of anyone getting sick from it though? How about the alcohol smell? Like this stuff set my nose hairs on fire...

Last time I had a smell like that it was in a couple trays that had used a very high spawn ratio and very limited GE. The odor was caused by some kind of anaerobic Mucorale species. On the evenly mixed tray it could be seen as a long haired mold growing from the exposed grains. In the layered tray it was seen as a couple tiny patches of a cobweb like mold on the uncolonized coir which was destroyed by peroxide. The first trays was tossed, the second the GE was fixed by loosening the lid. The odor disappeared over about 3 days and tray went on to fruit normally.

So I don't know if you see signs like that in your substrate. The odor was just as you described, like a bottle of vodka.

I think PF was right & what I've got is myco-gone. Blindingleaf mentioned the same thing on the phone this morning.

I posted this without worry for the tubs, those are expendable...More-so concerned with coming down with something from inhaling that smell :mad2:

Could be allergies kicking up from the trees blowing their loads but can never be too careful.

Anyways, doesn't sound very similar to your experience minus the smell Kizzle.

It kind of looks like Mycogone but if it was Mycgone doesn't produce that kind of odor. Alcohol is a product of fermentation. It's almost certainly related to O2/CO2 levels.
