I'm in the same boat, I'd never see a therapist even though I've seen some shit in my life....I watched a dude shoot himself in the head in high school...so it would probably be good for my ass to see a shrink but I don't trust anyone enough to open up about the shit I've been through...mushrooms help me tremendously.. The whole aspect from agar to fruiting and harvesting...makes me happier because I always got something mycology related to be doing...not stuck off in my head all the time...

Third tray out of 5 went green thanks to literally 2 uncolonised grains in each tray. I spawned them probably 36 hours too early like an idiot because I was bored of waiting for the jars to colonise in my freezing cold house. Sometimes I really fucking hate this hobby.

-Is there a chance that those 2 literal grains were a sign of contam, so more grains were affected but went unnoticed?
-Is there a chance you didn't pasteurize the sub exactly how you should (55°-60°C/130°F-140°F) so some stuff survived or did not survive, depending on chosen sub..? Or that your pasteurizing was shorter than an hour, or longer than 1,5- 2 hours?
Those might be culprits too.. Just curious..

I find it odd that you assume he's spawning to poo or straw... I like to assume that most of us are spawning to coir around here 
That being said I have a jar that has been fully colonized except for two grains for over a week and I'm worried about spawning it with the rest even the growth looks clean... hoping a smell test will confirm things

Huh... Didn't know that.
Whenever I worry about certain jars, I spawn seperately in a minitub.. works good for a flush or 2 usually..
