White Snow - Interesting Contam on Barley?
    #21812177 - 06/15/15 08:11 PM (9 years, 7 months ago)

Noticed this on my slowest quart jar of barley (1 of 5). I used some spent barley from a brew project - Belgian Trippel - to start a bulk. And I did my best using the stove and the oven to sterilize the grains without a PC.

Trust me, life would be much simpler if I had a PC... But I did want to make use of this free substrate! I have 4 happy jars, and 1 with this contam. So we'll be onto a bulk mono with hpoo/coir/verm in about a week.




Any info would be appreciated on the white growth, and I'll definitely be sending this one to the garden.

Here's a picture of some happy mycelium doing it's thing in another barley jar.

:thataintright: ew. Especially the last pic. Either really wet, super well cooked/bursted grains, or a huge bacteria outbreak.. I'm suspecting all 3.

The white/greyish offwhite is mycelium, but it looks like it's fighting a bacterial infection. They say you have to boil the jars for 8 hours minimum if you don't have a pc. Bacterial endos are bitchy like that. (It's that wet look/making the mycelium weak)

Those jars definitely seem like they have a lot of water in them.
