Are These Bags Contaminated? (Pics)
    #22300316 - 09/27/15 08:07 PM (8 years, 4 months ago)

Hey guys,

I have had these 5-grain spawn bags for a little over 6-weeks now, kept them in a clean, dark, closet. Temperatures are from 80-86 F, the bag has been completely straight up so air filter is good. There are a few stem looking things starting to come out, there's a slightly weird color to it, I have read that a yellow/tan color is normal from bags, and also, it is not fully colonized. I have looked up contaminations but this looks a little different them from what I have been able to find via search.

When I bought them, they said not to break them up but I haven't, not sure if these are toast or if there is some hope.

I appreciate any help given!

They look fine but I'd break them up and mix the myc around.

Actully, I'd do it when it's ~15% colonised if I were you.

6 weeks is a long time and the bag is closed with a .2um filter.

Nothing alive is getting in or out, aside from the bag getting compromised.

Watch out for any foul/rotting/fermenting smells though.

You can't always see yest or bacteria.



peace

Thanks for the advice micro! No weird smells yet so that's good, I will go ahead and break the bags up.

Bacteria...
Could still fruit, but they're awfully white, which makes me think maybe you'll get green in your tubs.
But 6 weeks!!! What did you inoculate with?  If g2g or agar, Throw em out. If spores, try to spawn em if and when they colonize fully. And start using agar
