Mono has odd smell but looks okay, what to do ?
    #24037417 - 01/24/17 10:13 PM (7 years, 1 month ago)

Hi , im not new to growing but havnt had this problem before.
I spawned a cvg mono but i think i made it too wet, i used 1 brick of coir 3 quarts verm i cup gypsum 1 cup of coffee and a half cup  of supercake  and 5 quarts water, then oven pasturized for 2 hours, then spawned 12 brf cakes. It was fully colonized at 6 days but i let it go for 7  due to busyness.
When i went to put it into fruiting today the tub kinda smelt off.

I have 2 other monos made the same way, both doing perfect , startin to knot up ,
Its not a bad smell  but not fresh mushroomy like usual , i moved it out of the main room n cracked the lid a bit to let it dry a tady, it smells kind of sweet so im thinkin bacteria .

Was just wonderin wat i should do, is it worth waiting to see if it does ne thing or should i just toss it? do you think it could bounce back n not smell funky ne more ?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated  thank you

Id hold off till i saw green take some pics man ive never worried about smell on a colonized tub but i guess i never thought about it if it colonkzed in 6 days should be fine... usually bacterial subs take longer thats pretty quick

They look good so far if after a day or so you dont get beads on top id lightly mist it that should keep the surface pretty good for a bit

So the mono with the odd smell turned out awsum, the smell mostly went away, kinda smells like coconut n kelp so i think it was just the supercake addative, pushin out some monsters tho.

Unless you've got spawn just sitting around waiting to be used there's no sense in tossing it out yet cause so long as it isn't trich or some other mold there really isn't risk of it jumping tubs or anything.

Assuming that it is bacterial, and you keep it, it isn't guaranteed that it'll produce as large a flush as the other tubs, however, if you toss it it is guaranteed that it won't produce anything.

I assure you I'm not doing it to lead someone astray, I'm doing it because I was led astray myself and it is not my intention to spread false information, but to come to a greater understanding in this field that is mycology. I urge you to re-teach me anything that I have incorrectly learned thus far.

Ya i had 2 other tubs going and 2 more tubs of spawn ready so i was just worried about trich bombing my room n fudging everything else in up, im glad i didnt toss it tho like i said i think it was just the supercake i added that made it smell off, this tubs puttin out some of the nicest fuits out of the three, ive bin runnin this "strain" through 4 or so generations a year for the past 5,

i kinda lucked out cuz i didnt even know about genetics or nething til recently, i just kept printing the best lookin n cultivate the next round ,they seem to put nice cone caramels for the last year  had a wierd mutant stage last year tho but they just all look like that now, the best part is i seem to have accidently narrowed down the potency gene to something stupid, i dont know neone who will eat more then 2 grams of these ones, even from ms i havnt ran into a even slightly average potent fruit in a long time

To ensure your best shrooms what you're gonna want to do is clone instead of print. The spores that you get from a particular mushroom won't guarantee that you'll have similar mushrooms from it, which is why you had the mutants a d whatnot for a while, the only way to get repeat qualities is through clones and isolates

I know that i do clone, just started cloning n cleanin up some cultures again, i used to have some nice cultures a few years ago but i threw them out when cleanin out my fridge, didnt think id ever grow again and well...i was a sad bear.      Worked out for the better tho cuz ive bin just doin ms cycles for the last year n a half, and now its soo consistent i couldnt be more pleased. Ijust took 6 clones on the weekend so hopefuly i get a keeper from that , plus gunna do a few more ms tubs from some prints i just took,i dont like growin the same culture to much, gets boring, its nice to get a good suprise once in awhile n mix it up n progress , i love me some fungi suprise

Yeah o feel that. Ms does pretty well on its own these days and they do so consistently as well, but sometimes you get a genetic monster that merits cloning. Personally I try and get a clone out of every grow just for the sake of experimentation. Ms is fun though just cause you never know what will come, it's more of a genetic lottery in a sense, you never know what will come of it!

Exactly!! Its like opening up a present except its better, its a mono!! Lol ,  ive bin likin the pf to mono latly
Take a few choice prints, make up 12 or so syringes , noc up 60 jars then spawn to 3 or 5 tubs( 12-20 jars per tub) then jst sit back n watch. Its a great way to start out a bunch of clones cuz the genetic diversity is so big , ull have hundreds of top contenders to choose from.  Then just take the Best to your preference and try each out and keep ur favs, fun times had by all

I also got this theory that maybe extreme genetic diversity in a culture contributes to increased potency , cuz i make darker syringes then i should inject more then i should and it always works out, and i dont think i could find a week fruit if i tried. But w/e its just a theory n thers no real way to test it out without lab acces, but it works for me so ima keep doin it. Lol sorry just rantin
