Now that you mention it, they were consolidated to the point that's the best I could get them to break up. Now that I think about it, I've never seen this in any of my jars before but I've also never had jars that wouldn't break up easily. Yes, sketchy is definitely one way of viewing it. That's why I'm looking to you guys. I've had six monos and two minis contam and I'm trying to narrow it down. It has to be in my spawn but I also wasn't pasteurizing my substrate, just using the bucket tek. I am now though.

So let me ask you guys this. If it is contam of some sort and not blue bruising (that ain't the easiest shit to say in a hurry btw) what would it do from this point? Would it continue to grow like that or would it begin to colonize again and cover the contam? A couple months ago I lost ten jars to green mold and there wasn't any question of it. It was some funky shit mon. But the original ones that started this whole thread have started turning white again after two days.

If this truly is bacteria, what would its behavior be like? This discoloration begins relatively quick after the shake. I mean, you can be looking at the jar and see nothing and then five minutes later this appears and gets darker and more spread out as time goes by. Does this info help at all?

the blue is bruising but the big chunks of grains and myc are bacterial.

Good morning everyone. The first pic is of the same 3 jars about 18 hours later. The second pic is a side by side of one jar from yesterday and one from three days ago. The older one did the exact same thing as these and now look like this. And this is why I asked the question about behavior and such because it looks like it recovered nicely in the one, but the smell is not earthy or shroomy but rather a mixture between sweet and sour caramel? IDK, but it doesn't smell like shrooms. It looks great, spawn it, hell yeah. Then mono completely contaminates. Every time. the other jar in that pic is definitely contam based on smell. I'm just going to assume all the others are as well rather than waste another mono. I've had jars contaminate with green mold before but they left no doubt as to what it was. These on the other hand have been deceiving me for some time. It's a learning experience and I thank everyone for their input.

There's no question, they are bacterial. You can try to fruit them if you want.
I'm not a fan of fruiting bacterial spawn, especially if it looks as bad as those. To each his own.
The blue is just bruising, but healthy myc usually does not stay blue for that long; they return to white once they recolonize after shaking. Chances are, it's already under so much stress that it probably won't fruit.
Start using agar.

Okay dammit, where is everyone getting these trippy ass moving memes or whatever? I haven't got that far in my exploration of Shroomery. You guys post some pretty funny shit. And no, I'm not fruiting them. I have healthier spawn ready for today.
