Have this lil mini mini goin for shits and giggles. Agar to grain to cvg. Not sure of strain. Random dish. Been fruiting for about 5 days now and got all these puffy white balls, they're not dense, more like cotton balls, with metabolites I believe forming on top. Any ideas or contamed? Thanks in advance.

Two things:
1) Your grow is totally contaminated.
2) Those blobs are mutants. It happens, especially when you have contamination, but I've never seen anything grow in such a terrible contamination as that.
They are active, but if I were in your shoes, I'd just start a new grow.

Quick question. Did this have a specific odor to it as it was colonizing? I have a friend who has something like this going on but to a lesser extent, and his tub had a sort of sour/tart smell to it, almost like wine.

those are not blobs, that's a severe bacterial reaction of mycelium

Not sour or tart, but something smelled a tad off. From what others are sayin it's bacterial AF

Would definitely agree. Personally never seen blobs, but this shits like cotton balls. Have a couple other lil tubs going, different spawn, same sub CVG, and they seem to be doing the same thing.

I've had a fair bit of great bulk grows, but I seem to be hitting a fucking wall with this bacterial issue now. Any suggestions? Pretty confident in my sterile technique, follow teks to a "T".

If you watch the sub closely as its colonizing you'll notice those fluffy myc balls actually originate from single grains infected by bacteria

Thank you for the information. That's very useful. So in that case, if I notice the fluff balls coming off a single piece of grain, do I simply remove it? And in most cases I'm mixing sub and spawn as opposed to layering. I usually try put a sprinkle of substrate as a kind of top layer, so should I scoop out where the fluff balls pop thru?? I've had some semi-bacterial tubs produce great flushes. But these fluff balls are being a pain in the ass. Would you be inclined to simply say the spawn is my issue? Or can substrate carry bacterial properties as well? I actually got quite-a few minis and some trays going, all different spawn, all same issue. Sorry bout the 99 questions. Really appreciate your help.
So on these other lil tubs, what's your suggestion with these lil cotton balls poppin up?

Haha I'm guessing you are implying to burn this thing. That looks like the overall consensus. Pour one out for the contamed and condemned.
