What the HELL did I grow?
    #21825626 - 06/18/15 09:24 PM (9 years, 6 months ago)

I opened an Ecuador spore print that was a few years old (unused) and made up a syringe. Followed the PFtek as I had a couple times before (both successful) and these two cakes are the only growth I've got, both from the same sample. What the fuck is this!!??

That's weird. You'd almost expect it to get some kind of usual infection (trich, say) as opposed to not just fruits, but strange looking ones.

But then again I'm as confused as you that's just a wild guess so don't trust me till someone more experienced tells you so

Over half of the 12 jars got trich. I got this from a reliable vender and the other spore samples I bought at the same time came out just fine. They were different strains, Mexicub and B+, but no problems.

Okay, well if that's the case it's good to know I didn't do anything to fuck it up. SO strange when I saw them popping out...

Cheers for your help guys!

Unless you're the one that's grown oysters before then those syringes are contaminated with oyster spores or mislabeled

If they're fuzzy they're probably S.commune and not oysters. The ones on the right look kind of fuzzy :tongue:

Of course not. When was the last time you seen mushrooms grow from a Spores101 print? :lol:

No I didn't get them there, but last time I mentioned a vendor's name on here I got yelled at and edited it real quick.

I'm dying to see a better-focused pic of the one on the right.  OP, do you think you could take it off of the foil and show it to us?

I'm still trying to understand what happened. If it was a mislabeled spore print, that seems kind of shoddy on the vendor's part, no? If not that, how does an infection occur? Which one do you think it was?

I would blame the vendor......was it one of our sponsors....just a yes or no is fine, no need to name them.

If it's a vendor email them and say the spores appeared infected when I did microscopy

Very interesting (disappointing for the OP to be sure though :frown: )

But interesting none the less in reading some of the posts in the link provided by TheEaglesGift.

Makes me wonder if the contam came from the same source as that 7 year old contam.

At any rate, sorry to the OP even if they are edible I am not sure I would eat them without knowing the source... of course I am new at this so more experienced growers may disagree.

Yeah, one of the sponsors. I'm living outside the US now, so don't think I'll be having any new prints mailed here.

Haha, yeah probably won't be taking a nibbles off of this one!

I have seen schizophyllum contam that was traced to the woods outside of the poster's house.  IIRC, that's the most common source.  OP, do you live near woods?

It may or may not be from the syringe/print. It's possible the cake became infected from your own environmental spore loads, and the vendor was at no fault. This is the time of year that the boards become active with this particular contamination.
