Is this a contam?
    #23418193 - 07/06/16 07:54 PM (7 years, 7 months ago)

Hello All,

I was wondering if this is a contamination. This is an agar recipe with some blue coloring and the agar being left out for 3-4 weeks. The top is rhizomorphic and white. Before being transferred to this pasty plate, the same culture was used to inoculate some rye berries and yielded some decent results.







Although I do think the fruits are a little small.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

i don't see anything that suggests contamination. I do see fruits with not enough air exchange and light. Also bottom watering will help with pinsets the substrate can't keep up with.

Bottom watering is like pouring a pint of water between the liner and the substrate, and refilling it when needed.

thank you so much for the advice! I really appreciate it! Could you help me understand how you came to conclusion of the light deficiency and FAE?

Thank you I will be trying the bottom watering.

Small caps and long skinny stems.
