Ok, recently new to signing up to this place and grateful for any help or advice.. Not so new to growing, but new to this predicament.. Could anyone check out these pics and tell me if this is purple/red bread mold? Or anything I should be concerned about? Thanks. http://

That doesn't look good. Nothing like I've ever seen anyway.
What exactly is that? A spawned bulk sub?

Yep. Thought I was ultra clean about the process....Meh. But it had been about a week since I cased, a tad dry when I was checking this morning. I saw this purple peeking out on the sides of the plastic containers. I actually got in there and broke up the sub to see if it was inside, and it was.. Seels like it comes from the grains. (Btw, millet and rye mix) But, I have a gut feeling that says this seriously sucks balls..

Strange colours are never ever good. Try to improve on your sterile tek, that's probably where you went wrong.
I guess it's some kind of pink mold. Lipstick maybe? I've never had that personally. I did have some weird as fuck pink bacteria once though.

Idk there are many many pink/purple molds. The most common purple one is fusarium.

Ugh. I guess common is not usually associated with being "ok" in this instance. I didn't upright put my nose in it, and I had a face mask on but I didn't smell anything funky or rotting, etc. Could this be due to the rye berries I used? I can't imagine how this happened since I remember doing previous grows in far less sterile conditions. Different strains though..dont think if that matters. Hopefully though, it's not a bad batch. Got them from mushrooms.com, previously Hawks Eye. Would anybody know any causes other than lack of sterility?

Properly sterilized rye can't harbor mold, it was your technique or your jars, or the spores if you inoculated grain directly with them. Also edit your post, you just broke the rules by naming a vendor.

When you say "got them from...", do you mean the spores or the grains?
