Need some knowledge here. Contamination???
    #23505597 - 08/03/16 01:03 PM (7 years, 5 months ago)

So I mixed 5 cultivated jars with 5lbs of pasteurized substrate and put it in a tray covered it with foil and let it sit for 4 days. Opened it up and the myc had spread everywhere. Just as expected. So I transferred it into the FC and it's been 6 days since. Does everything look okay? See little yellow spots here and there but the mycelium looks good. Should I be concerned? Any helpful knowledge would be great.

Thanks!

It looks like you were a little anxious to fruit it. 4 days is not a lot, it looks like it should have had at least 2-3 more days before fruiting. Patience is key with this hobby. But it looks like it didn't have time to consolidate so it couldn't easily fight of bacteria, you'll likely lose it to contamination tbh

No what happened is he had dirty spawn. Lots of people are Fruiting when spawning so there really is no such thing as fruiting too early with bulk. Cakes don't hold much water, and need the extra time to digest the cake. Cakes are the only thing that need consolidation.

If this is manure, another possibility is he pasteurized it too hot. What I do with manure is 140F-150F for 1 hour. Too long and too hot isn't good with manure. Also it looks pretty wet too. Op needs to prep with less water.

So Is this tray done for? No chance at saving it? The little yellow spots haven't grown in size and i have done plenty of research to find nothing. Should I just wait and see if i get some pins? Im at a loss here.

Outside can yield too. You just don't want that in your grow room..
