cobweb/black mold deluxe, or a healthy growing cake?
    #21959850 - 07/18/15 09:55 AM (8 years, 6 months ago)


Wtf are those black spots? I have a few very small ones in my other jars too.
Is what I'm growing here cobweb with mold? :|
Or is it normal that the white mycelium has spread so much over 4 days (after 2 days there was no sign of growth, so practically in 2 days), and the black spots are actually spores? I did shake the syringe well, and I remember there being quite a lot of floating spores in the syringe.

Looks like verm. Cakes do that. So in other words you're good :thumbup:

Looks awfully dark for verm. Were your syringes very thick with spores?

It is a clump of spores that shot out at once.

The rest of the grown looks very very healthy.

Well regardless what It is, even though I still maintain that since verm has aluminum in it, it'll make black spots as the mycelium colonizes through it... it seems we all agree it doesn't look like much to worry about. It doesn't look like a mold and the mycelium around it is healthy as balls as said by mbp

Thank you for the positive thought sent my way!
This is my first grow, and I guess the general consensus is that the black spots are spores and the mycelium is just healthy and spreading rapidly, although how can you be sure it's not cobweb? 2 days ago I saw absolutely no growth at all, and now bam, look at that picture.. looks almost surreal. I am keeping it quite warm though.
The spore syringe I bought had tons of flying spore clumps that were the same color as the black spot in the pic, and it even had spore clumps as big as the black spot, I did however shake it vigorously before use, and I doubt that they would have spat out in such a pattern. anyway, if the black spots grows in size, I should toss em, right?

Cobweb is a dark af gray. Mycelium is white. Cobweb would take 6-12 hours to have that whole jar colonized. 2 days and you got that means you have an aggressive colonizer:)

I think I have some good news! Here is a picture taken 24 hours later of the same spot.

first pic                                              | 24hours later

The mycelium looks to be aggressively spreading, and the black spots remained the same! I guess I would be able to dunk the cakes in about 10 days from now.

Lets hope this aggressive little buddy kills of any infections it may encounter :amanita2:!

I know, and it happens every time I trip. I see faces similar to that one in almost everything, leaves, sky, counterstrike... It's not that persistent, but it always intermittenly shows up and is getting annoying.

Well getting crazy happy faces could be seen as a problem. However if you're talking about the jars, they look healthy

stop looking at it.  Just put it somewhere for 10 days then look at it.

probably true. I'll just smoke a go bud and wait at least a week.

EDIT: "smoke a go bud". I... don't even.  :stoned2:

I don't see an issue.

When I was new I looked at my jars every day... many times a day.

Just relax. The act of looking at them isn't going to alter the outcome.

Start a new project or two, in case this doesn't pan out. Some of the best advice anyone will ever give you: have a few projects going at all times.
