Brown Spots - Bacteria?
    #21739591 - 05/30/15 02:07 AM (8 years, 7 months ago)

Hello Everyone. First I would like to thank everyone for helping to create such a wonderful resource. This site has been invaluable! So far searching has been all I have needed to do to answer all of my questions. This time however I haven't been able to find an answer through those means.

This is my first go at this and several of my jars ended up with a strange brown colored growth. It almost looks like a brown powder. This was a BRF tek which I incubated at 80 degrees (I know, I know, next time I will do do room temp). I tossed most of the jars but had one that was pinning quite vigorously so I decided to quarantine it in a miniature shotgun style chamber. I wanted to see if the mycelium would take over, but it has not. The spots have not changed in size for at least a week.



Any ideas on what this is? Is i dangerous?

I have almost tossed this thing behind the shed a dozen times but I wanted to see what happened. Considering I have basically neglected the cake since birthing it seems to be doing quite well.

Looks quite contaminated bro.. it's a brown mold, not bacteria. Bacteria makes the cake look really wet. The mushrooms are edible as far as I know. Brown molds usually are not much concern. I just would toss it(best choice imo) or fruit it in my shed to keep the spores out of my grow area.

Yeah it always looked bad haha. Well should I grab the mushies that are not touching it or just throw it all? I am okay with throwing it as this was more of a learning experience than anything.

I tossed it all. Some of the mushrooms got huge but better safe than sorry.
