Cant tell if contam or not
    #23883053 - 11/30/16 09:13 PM (7 years, 1 month ago)

Hello, very first time grower here and I have a jar that I can't tell if is healthy or not. This is the best picture i could get of it but the Myc on the right hand side is slightly lighter grey and I'm curious if this is bad or good healthy myc. I started with 6 jars, but two got green mold and one simply failed to take off. they have been removed and were removed very early on. My last 3 all seem to be very healthy, but this one jar just looks slightly off. From what I've read any variation from the "cloud white", even a grey, can be contam. Any help is greatly appreciated, and thank you in advance.

Thanks for the input Vatman, I have it in it's own small area I call the "quarantine box" and am monitoring it. It is in fact still growing, just a bit slower than my other two jars. I think the other two will be ready to birth within the next 7 days. Tonight marks exactly 21 days since inoc, and the bottom of the other two jars is just starting to colonize while this one still has a bit more jar to cover.

BRF is contamination resistant compared to grains and most teks.

So you can overcome some minor contamination if there is any. Moderate to major could lead the jar to failing.

:whathesaid: there is some minor bacteria going on there IMO, but just wait it out, maybe you'll see it colonize and push out some fruits. If it pushes out pins before full colonization, rinse off the uncolonized areas when you dunk and roll.
