Is this contam?
    #22233879 - 09/13/15 08:14 PM (8 years, 4 months ago)

This is a quart jar incubating at around 75 for about 4 days now. It's a ms syringe so I'm thinking mold.http://http://
Thank you

Why avoid cracked corn? Just wondering.



It tends to puff up during the simmering process and becomes very starchy, which makes your grains clump together more after the PC cycle. It's best to avoid it, if you can.

I have never had a problem with corn.....it makes great spawn, and gets colonized just like the rest....

You just have to avoid the simmer/boil.....

And how long would that corns perfection point be?  I'm brand new to Wbs. Im aware that cracked corn isn't the best and I'm pretty much in the trial and error stage. I plan on doing three more jars tmrw. Add a little verm in the jars and pc for two hours? Is the simmer nessicary? And how do you guys feel about the soak?

Those jars were cooked for 80 min on 12 psi. They could probably use more drying and cooking

Ive seen at least 3 threads where the beginning stages of myc look very fuzzy. I would leave them be for now. Give it another week before tossing.

I was thinking the same thing 2 weeks ago and now I have 12 jars at 100%

When a good portion become colonized . Whole point of shaking to to break up colonized parts to move them to other parts of the container to allow the mycelium to reach it quicker.

Can someone please explain to me where the contam is? Cuz all I see is what appears to be mycelium from a MS inoculation starting that has yet to gain enough density to become opaque. What two molds are in there, exactly?




I agree. I do not see anything bad at this point. Shake the jars and let them grow, let them grow, don't hold them back anymore


--------------------
Stop experimenting half way through your first grow. Grow it to maturity, watch it, learn from it. Do this a few times then experiment with different ideas and figure out what works best for you.

That is rhizo growth indeed!! Make sure to do the smell test before spawning just to be sure it's clean spawn. :super:

My question now is how far along is that jar. It's all the way around and up to the glass and I know it's filled in the middle. But does it have to be 100% white. Because there are some seeds not fully covered
