Monotub Contam?
    #22424929 - 10/23/15 09:45 PM (8 years, 3 months ago)

While it was colonizing, these white dots appeared. I assumed they might be hyphal knots. I had to leave for a while before I was sure my mono was 100% colonized, so i put it into fruiting conditions. Now the small white dots are all over the surface. Everything smells ok, but I'm think I lost my tub to a contam. Are they a contaminant?











Thanks

Those little white dots are all going to be pins tomorrow. That tub is getting ready to explode with mushrooms. Good job

No doubt that looks great! Was just gonna post my worries about a tub too I'll ask it here if it's alright...

Mixed WBS couple weeks ago with coir and verm and seemed really slow to colonise. Was waiting for the myc to completely take over the surface like Mycozen's tub but just had a few white patches on top. Today I looked at it closer and I got grey fuzz in spots I'm guessing is cobweb. The tub has been in cooler temps than I would like and the holes are taped up...was waiting for surface to be right before adding polyfill. Well, today there are small fruits popping up around the grey spots and the surface isn't even done...What do I do now?

Plan to hit it with peroxide solution this evening and see what that does. But if you spray it on the small fruits popping up is it bad for them? If the solution helps with what is growing will the fruits be safe for consumption? Really just getting into grains and bulk and haven't had this issue before. Please tell me there is hope for this tub...lot of effort in the 6 grain jars to have to toss it before first flush occurs. :frown:

Mycozen hope I'm not hijacking your thread but your's looks great buddy! :rockon:

Gotta see a pic man. Cobweb is super fluffy. What you're describing does not sound like cobweb. Sounds more like old, weak mycelium. Post a pic and tell us when did you spawn it

Myco, your shit looks great bud, fruit it and rock out.

Blue Indian, for sure make your own thread and ask your questions in there buddy. Pics would be great so we can assess your problem. But from the sounds of it, you're over paranoid and you should fruit it. Your substrate is literally telling you it's ready by pinning. While small amounts of peroxide won't hurt your fruits or make them inedible, it will stress the mycelium out. So fruit it first and let it do its thing while posting pics so others can identify if anything is wrong. Optimistically, you can eat fruits off of a contaminated substrate and be perfectly fine because the shrooms won't contain any of the contaminant(unless you specifically see it growing on the fruit, then toss that fruit) but you have to weigh your risks here because opening a contaminated tub in your grow room can release spores and fuck up future grows. So be sure before you do so. I suggest making your own thread in the contamination forum and getting some input from others. Good luck.


--------------------
Considering spores can survive the vacuum of space, I would assume it's safe to say that mushrooms are on every planet waiting for the right conditions to present themselves. What it all boils down to, is aliens are on shrooms.

Yeah I know a pic is worth 1000 words. Phone sux pic wise and can't upload from it...no clue where memory card is for the camera. It must be begging to fruit so untaping and putting in polyfill in a few. Will create my own thread but will bow out of here with my problems for now...very nice looking Mycozen...she's about to bust out! :ohboyohboyohboy:
