halfway incubated mycelium
    #21987608 - 07/23/15 10:21 PM (8 years, 6 months ago)

Hello, so what if during the process of incubation, the mycelium just stopped due to a lack of moisture in the substrate and possible overheating? No signs of contam (no discoloration or smell) but a distinct line where it just stopped. actually around the line its kind of grey.
Is it possible to salvage the mycelium and put in jars of fresh substrate?
not sure what do do here, advice please!

this is my second grow, I had a hard time maintaining a consistent temp in my makeshift incubator. This summer has also been hot causing temperature fluctuations, just when I had a steady 74-75 degrees I would come back and it would be at 82-83! I followed PF Tek pretty much, BRF, verm, I did get two succesfull cakes but it seems the others are done for.
I think I'll just have to toss em and start up a fresh batch.

The higher temps can be a bitch for sure. For your next grow, I suggest jumping into agar work, then making some grain jars > coir/verm. You'll see that bulk growing is a LOT easier than the PF tek. :twocents:

They should be fine, I left a heater on when I first started and my room got to 90 degrees. It was pretty bad but they recovered.

Mycelium experiences thermal death at 106f and plus, and even then it has to be exposed for a while.

IMO, give it some time and start a new project.

But cron is right, pics.
