Funky Grain Bag - Is this contaminated?
    #23172058 - 04/30/16 08:45 AM (8 years, 8 months ago)

I'm a noob - working on my first project. I had 2 strains of spores, Cambodian an Z Strain, and inoculated 2 grain bags and 10 jars. The jars all look healthy, and the Cambo bag was perfect and is already spawned to my first bulk tray.

The Z strain bag was going very slow, so I massaged it a bit, and the mycelium started to take off pretty well, but the bag looks awfully wet, and the grains getting dark, and almost greenish but not really green.. just dark.

Can anyone tell from looking at the picture below? If I can get the bag to fully consolidate, I'm going to open it outdoors and give a good sniff, but if it's bad now, I'm just going to toss it. It's a shame because it's got a nice big ball of healthy stuff going in the middle.

Looks nasty to me and I'd toss it, based on that pic..But then again I don't use bags and we don't know what sub/spawn you've used for your bag. Typically if it isn't white, it isn't right.

Thanks for the replies. As a first-timer, I must say that I feel like I've just lost a child during labor.  Farewell little one. :sad:

Now, back to my healthy young cambo spawn!! :crazy2:

Hey, HowToGrow.. those pics in your signature.. looks like solid cakes of substrate removed from a pan of some kind. I've got some loaf pans I plan to mini-bulk-spawn from some BRF cakes. I had a question in another post about whether or not I'd be able to dunk/roll between flushes.

Here's my post if you'd be so kind as to comment.. looks like you know How To Grow
