hello all, my bud has 2 contaminated jars, he was wondering if he tossed it in the dirt outside, and mushrooms actually grew from it, would they be ok as long as they dont smell funky? I personally dont think they will grow...the contam is fucking gross lookin' and took over the whole jar, but he insists on throwin' em' to mother nature to take care of.

yeah, you can always try. Otherwise you would just throw them away anyways right?

Yeah, I had a bit of a tiff with a mycophile about this question once, but he convinced me mushrooms grown outside from contaminated cakes are fine, but that he would reccomend cutting of the contaminated area (as Kush said) and dunking in a %3 h202 solution for about 10 mins. Personally I just chuck all my substrate waste on my compost heap and... well, it's quite a sight. And well worth doing... ultra neglect

awsome...he already threw em' in the dirt with out cutting off the contam, because the one was checked 2 days ago...it was colonizing somewhat, he thought it stalled, when it was checked today, everything that wasnt colonized (all the seeds) was a gross ass green, i didnt even want to touch it...could that be wet spot? i looked at the contam pics on the site, it didnt really look like trich. the other one i didnt throw it out yet, it was in the same state the other one was, and when it was checked today, it had what looked like really whispy mycelium all over...cobweb? i think i'll put it outside tomorrow though.

This speaks to one of the biggest questions I have in this hobby I'm just now delving into: why is a contamination inside deemed by most to be unsafe to consume, yet when you put it outside, the resulting fruit is safe? Am I misunderstanding something? Is the contamination unable to survive outside, and thus dies leaving only clean mycelium? An answer from the trusted cultivators would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, love this community!
