White contamination on First Time Grow? (Pictures)
    #23699253 - 10/02/16 06:31 AM (7 years, 3 months ago)

So, for my first time grow, I decided to go for the PF Tek. I inoculated my jars on the 9th and I already had to throw one out due to a Trichoderma contamination. So, for a while I have noticed a spot on one of my jars that looked like mycelium but it isn't as bright white as the mycelium itself and I noticed this morning that the Rizomorphs never merged with it. Is this contamination? If so, what kind and what do I do?

P.s. Another clue is that this spot is not directly under my inoculation point as with the other mycelium colonies.

I removed this jar and placed it in a different cupboard just to be safe.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

I would put it somewhere not near your grow room and let it keep going to see what happens. Sometimes when you pop the lid off for brf cakes. The top layer of verm will have white fluffy looking mold because that's what was used to keep your cakes safe. The mycelium doesn't get affected by this. The mycelium could take over and fully colonize. treat it like an experiment to learn. Yes i know those aren't BRF cakes, it was just an example.

I am curious to know IF there even was a dry verm layer.
I can tell you without a doubt that the foil should have came off when you inoculated, and stayed off.. But then again you have your lids all fucked up anyway with the foil under the lids (i would love to see a top down pic of those lids).

Maybe this is the cause for your failure.

Thanks for the replies guys.

The Method that I used was the PF Tek from a book called the Mushroom Growers Handbook. I placed two foil layers under the lid and one over the lid when I sterilized. I also prepunched 4 holes in the lid for inoculation. I removed the top foil layer, placed the needle through the holes in the lids, pierced the two foil layers and then inserted the needle through the dry vermiculite layer.

Yes, I do have a dry verm layer of about 3/4". I read that sometime the mycelium can secrete antifungal and antibiotic metabolites and enzymes. Could it be possible if I quarantined it that it might survive? Furthermore, since you guys have helped me to determine that this is contamination, what type is it? Trichoderma before sporulation? Cobweb mold? Bacteria?

OK, and why would I have removed the foil? It's like saying, that if I didn't use the lids, and just had the foil, I should have inoculated and removed the foil completely, exposing the dry verm layer. From my understanding, you don't even attempt to open a PF Jar until it has consolidated.

That book is so outdated with hardly a redeeming quality.  If you have to use brf cakes you need to look up RogerRabbit's videos.  Up to date with invaluable info for cakes.  I remember reading that handbook 14 years ago and was considered out dated back then.  For a better book read try out The Mushroom Cultivator.  Outdated but still filled with great info from someone who is still considered the top of his field.

Sorry, my mistake, it's "Psilocybin Mushroom Handbook: Easy indoor and outdoor cultivation." It's from 2006, so I suppose that it is somewhat outdated.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll definitely do a search for that book.

Yeah I have read that one too.  Still full of pretty bad info although a lot better than mushroom growers handbook.

Haha, I kinda figured considering that I almost attempted their supposed "Improved PF Tek". Bunch of douche bags almost fucked up my grow. I'm a bit wiser for the experience though.

So, just out of curiosity, since I read that mycelium could sometimes overcome both bacterial and mold infections, I quarantined that jar and left it to colonize. I won't be fruiting it with my other healthy cakes, but I thought that you guys would like to see this for informational purposes.

Any thoughts?

Haha, well, I suppose it's each to their own. I don't trust this jar, but I did personally observe how it stalled for a few days and then started to 'absorb' the mold. I read somewhere on here that another guy had a pink bacterial infection that the mycelium destroyed after a week or two as well. If I am not mistaken, RR also mentioned that Mycelium does excrete antifungal and anti-bacterial enzymes.

Like I said, I am an not placing any hopes on this jar, but I will be fruiting it far away from my healthy cakes.

Interesting, if you do this funky birthing, put 1 tbsp H2o2 (3%) into fresh water and dunk it there for 24h... From what I can see, this jar looks like infected with cobweb (not sure) and maybe hydrogen peroxide can support the mycelium to fight off the mold.

Cause the bullshit is everywhere on the site if you look up cobweb mold. Unfortunately the site is a mushroom debate platform at times to the point where it's hard for people like me to truly know without attempting some of it ourselves. PE is the best teacher..... personal experience not penis envy lol although they to are great teachers in the Astro projection lol

Don't take ot personally bro I've seen to many arguments on here over that topic. I've seen people post pics where watered down peroxide saved them from cobweb mold. Even believe I seen rr reference it as a possible but not guaranteed way to beat it. But it obviously doesn't always get the job done. I myself won't be doing it. Rather start over than spread mold spores through my grow room

My point is your offering a treatment for a contam you can't identify. Plus peroxide is sprayed on cob web I don't like the idea of my mushrooms soaking up that shit.

Don't take ot personally bro I've seen to many arguments on here over that topic. I've seen people post pics where watered down peroxide saved them from cobweb mold. Even believe I seen rr reference it as a possible but not guaranteed way to beat it. But it obviously doesn't always get the job done. I myself won't be doing it. Rather start over than spread mold spores through my grow room




Nah, I do not take it personally  :freewilly:

He is going to birth it anyway, because he want to do his personal experience which I found is a great way to learn. Maybe H2o2 helps, maybe not - at least it is worth a try (if he likes).

My point is your offering a treatment for a contam you can't identify. Plus peroxide is sprayed on cob web I don't like the idea of my mushrooms soaking up that shit.




True, I cannot really identify it from the pictures. Maybe its cobweb, maybe it is not. However, H2o2 does not harm the mycelium, just the grow stalls. This jar is infected with something and he is trying to birth it anyway. Peroxid will not ruin this cake  :shrug:

:whathesaid: and like I said people debate this shit so much that as a newbie you get so confused you turn to the fuck it method and try it anyway. Long as you don't bitch if it don't work your a better man for the experience. Figure it out for yourself and don't be surprised if an impatient know it all vet tears you a new one for trying. It's very very very common here

That was for mrmazdarx9 cause I def don't agree with that statement bud. You should be careful cause actually can be harmful. That's y people advise against it.

If it was harmless no one would deter you from it. And you also wouldn't have to water it down

Thanks for your replies and I would have to say that the debate was interesting. Personally, I am a newbie grower and, hell, I'm doing it for the experience. The more you try, the more you know. :shrug:

The way I see it, it will be in its own quarantined environment and I won't birth it as such. To keep the contamination, if the mycelium hasn't killed it, at bay, I am fruiting straight from the jar. (Yes, I know... Not perfect, lower yields, yada, yada). However, on the other hand, I would have thrown it out. If I get any fruit from it, and that is a big IF, I would think of it as a success. If I don't get any fruits from it and it turns into a blob of mush inside the jar, it's another success, because I am all the more richer for the experience. Furthermore, I am quite interested to see how the fruits will turn out if there are any. For instance, will they show signs of potential contamination? Are they deformed? Etcetera, etcetera.

I don't see the harm in trying and possibly failing and learning. However, I sure as shit did not expect the mycelium to penetrate the mold and absorb it. Another interesting observation that went into my grow log.

As long as you not bath this cake in 30% h2o2 the myc will survive. IME 3% dissolved in water does the job against some bacteria and sometimes cobweb.

The point is the fruits will concentrate what you soak them in. Not an opinion fact.

Dude yeah, fuck that peroxide dunk water shit. Whoever thinks peroxide doesn't harm myc clearly hasn't sprayed peroxide on their myc. Shit fizzes up and ruins the surface of the mycelium. That is just asking for more contams to come in and take over your even more weakened mycelium.

Im actually surprised this is still going on lol. If this was me it would be fruiting outside right now.

Haha, coincidentally, we have an empty adjacent apartment on our home's property. So, technically, it is outside. :tongue:

So, an update, and personal experience gained. I admit, you guys were right. I cracked that jar today, and it smelt off and had cobweb mold sticking out the top. It was sad to chuck it, but necessary.

Thanks for your advice. However, I am glad that I did personally experiment with it and gained the experience.

For those that did give me advice, and I didn't do it, I meant no disrespect and appreciate your input. However, I seem to be a stubborn student. :tongue:
