What did I do wrong.

Im not sure what has gone wrong. This is my first time growing. I bought a kit and followed the instructions, but something appears to have gone wrong. There are only a few mushrooms growing around t of the edges, the rest of the growing surface is bare. There is a blueish tinge to the mycellium growth at the border of the white mycellium and the bare casing.
What did I do wrong? Too much water? Or not enough? Some sort of contamination?
Any help to narrow this problem down and possibly save what is left would be great. If this is not salvageable any information to stop this from happening on my next attempt would be great.



Thank you for your help.

Nobody is going to download that seemingly unsafe file. Upload pics to shroomery or imgur if you can't figure out shroomery pics.
Sounds like you have low humidity but I can't tell for sure without pics.
edit: i see the pics now. thats contaminated.

Contaminated and severely starved of fae.. sorry brother that's toast. Better luck next time. At least those fruits are safe to eat still.

I figured it was contaminated. Not a total loss, only like 95% loss. I will get a few little guys out of it I suppose.
Ill be more careful next time.
Thanks for the help.

Just make your own from scratch. For real. Those kits aren't worth it, they seriously stole how much money? and didn't even give you a good enough bag chamber to grow them right. Your problem wasn't your fault. It was theirs.
They are starved of fresh air because the bag doesn't have enough holes in it. You got contamination because of lack of fae, and amazing bacterial conditions that weakened it until contaminated. Those fruits are long and lanky with small caps from not enough fae. I doubt you know to poke holes into the bag. It's definitely not on the instructions. That's why these grow kits SUCK DICK. START YOUR OWN GROW AND SUCCESSFULLY GROW WAY MORE FOR WAY LESS.

Is there any chance of reversing and or stopping the damage? I scrapped back some of the casing material from the corner where the contamination started and the mycellium growing on the substrate still looks nice and white.
Could I remove all the casing material and start the casing process again? Or is this a complete re-do?
Thanks again for the help

I wouldn't bother. Trich is parasitic. It's a lot more than that green spot. That's just the sporulation. Trich is actually white and it's definitely intertwined in your mycelium now.
