Wondering about smell?
    #23833759 - 11/14/16 08:34 PM (7 years, 2 months ago)

I spawned a few quarts of WBS to Coir/verm. About 12 days ago. I am seeing mycelium growth on the surface of the tray, but it has a long way to go before being colonized. I lifted my wrap from the top of the tray thinking maybe a little FAE might help to accelerate the growth. The smell inside the tray seemed to be a little sour. It's not bad or disgusting. I was wondering if that was the coir or is something going wrong and do I need to just scrap the whole tray?

timeframe is off pretty badly. a small tray should be 100% colonized in a few days. any more, and its because there is contaminates present. a sour smell would be highly indicative of bacterial infection.

Deep down I figured but wanted to get a more experienced opinion before I tossed it out. Thanks mate.

The bulk I used was some that was left over from a previous grow and I had frozen it. I thawed it out  and baked it in an oven bag with the core temperature at 155 degrees for 3 hours. I mixed it at approximately 2 quarts spawn to 4 quarts of bulk. Wrapped it and placed it in a Rubbermaid tote, I figured it should be colonized by now though. The spawn was MS.

Your spawn was probably bacterial

So is it pretty shitty odds spawning to grain if I inoculated using a spore syringe?

If the syringe was dirty ...or the agar or the lc then it doesn't matter...all that matters is clean spawn.

I guess I am fixing to go shake the 8 quarts of spawn I am fixing to spawn to bulk and see which jars recolonize first. Is that the best way to find out if they are clean.

Don't toss it.  Let the top colonize just a bit more, and toss it into fruiting conditions.  I've pulled some very nice flushes from bacterial sub far worse looking than that. 

Here's one that was only slightly bacterial, but you could clearly see it in the jar prior to spawning.
