Ha I try to help out like everyone else here :smile: but thanks!

I also just gotta say because I saw op freaking out a bit earlier.. The fruits are still edible, so have np eating them. I'd just be shocked if it yields more than 3 grams this flush.

Well, I thought it was cool OP. You never tried to claim it was an award winning yield, idk who makes up these standards and tries to hold strangers to them

edit: Man after re-reading this whole thread some of you really need to rethink your attitudes. Poor OP's just asking you questions and trying to learn and you're just dumping buckets of shit on him. Fucking congratulations for dumping on a mold cake. Did you SEE those original pics? This is an awesome thread, nut in yer eye

Perfectionism and flexing :shrug: people are hella proud when they pull off a grow that is flex worthy. Telling those people that this is a successful grow after their hard work to make a sexy grow is pretty much scoff worthy lol. Like said, it's a testament to the fungus's resilience really. Just giving the guy some motivation to work more, and make everyone's jaw drop with an actual good grow, which I know he can do. Just gotta try again.

It was practically a novelty cake, he just thought it was cool that it ate the mold.

Lol yeah I'd be lying if I said I didn't do this before, so I know I've been there. It's also why I know for a fact the myc just covers it. You can see this on agar when it colonizes over a mold. Looking under the petri dish, you can see the big nasty fuck there chillin under the myc. It's indeed cool, and makes me really shocked at how mycelium can tear through lots of stuff. Still though, my overall experience has shown that the things produced generally aren't worth the potential risks at the end of the day. But, if OP gets what he wants before it molds out, should be fine.

Well on the plus side, OP, you've managed to create a thread responded to by a veritable who's-who of this forum :congrats:



Wow.. i really dont think that was the point. Probably why OP feels so misunderstood.

Its just show & tell and everyones ragging on him about things he probably already is aware of.

1 fruit is a success as the interior is ready contam free clone material.

Not only that but some people live in places where the air is laden with spores and already have mold active in the house, meaning to say proper hygene in a contained area  will always beat trying to obessively get rid of household mold.

How do people think mushrooms grow in the wild?  They cohabitate in substrate with other organisms.

No one calls wild found fruit sad because theres a pan ant and and some trichoderma on the same cow pattie.

Just seems to me OP found it interesting and unexpected to see the resilence of the organism. Yes he knows its contaminated.

Everyone will do what they want to with their own stuff. Its not up to us & its not going to kill him

Who ever said have fun with it see what happens, i love that attitude.

As a famous televison painter often said "you never lose when you learn" and personal experience is a special teacher. 

A person may have something happen that few people thought was possible, happened to me.

We only have 1 life to see what happens.

While you have a nice attitude, there is some flaws here. Is it a coincidence that when you see trich, you suddenly start to see it more and more? Purposefully growing with a risky jar is like gambling a lot with very little return. Literally could ruin potential future grows for less than 3 grams. You can't expect people to be ok with this.

In the wild, a mushroom drops billions of spores. Very few will actually propagate the next generation. It's a massive struggle out there. Home cultivation can be nothing like this, and is why we can show the difference between a healthy fruit and a struggling fruit. In fact, if we were to purposefully introduce contams into the jars, guaranteed, it will eventually become impossible to grow in the given environment. Unless we're willing to make thousands of jars at once to maybe get one or two successful grows.

Also lastly, the op did seem like he didn't know the difference between healthy fruits and struggling ones. I posted pics to help out with figuring it out, as well as explained the standards needed to get a better grow. (aka start a new project and aim for the top) I know he didn't ask for it, but it's just me trying to help.

OP, I don't think anyone here wants to make you feel inferior or "rag" on you. There is certainly a lingering stench of miscommunication here. I hope you keep posting on the forum and keep trying to do better :sunny:

Edit:

Also, not judging you for trying to salvage something that's contaminated. Here's something that I've got right now in the same vein:



Still fucked, unfortunately. I will get some fruits, but the cubensis will loose. Best I can do is stifle sporulation and keep it away from my main grow.

Hopefully that spawn was the result of me botching a G2G transfer and  not a dirty master, time will tell...

Just to be clear, since the picture's not great, that's a corner where my spawn wasn't mixed in thoroughly and is now trich city. It was nasty enough that I wanted to put salt on it ASAP, before I thought to take a picture. I have no shame, I think its happened to most of us.

WOw. A lot of people on my side today. I really began to question myself on what i was actually doing and was kind of loosing the intrest. But Thanks for understanding me. I did this as an eperiment frome a spore syringe that the previous house owner left behind. i am not planning on doing mycology in the future. When it got contamed i was going to toss it and leave it at that but when i forgot about the jar and discovered the mycelium growth i figured what the heck lets see who wins, will it be fruit or will the contam take over the mycelium before that poin. And here we are. i am sorry if i offended somebody with this experiment or if i have made myself unclear about what i am actually trying to acheive here.

Thanks for supporting this thread, wether you are against it or not. Here are some pictures as of today

My main sticking point with this was calling it success. Like I said before, it's salvage at best and getting 0 fruits is kinda hard to do. I've had to top fruit bad jars as well to get a print and continue a variety; but I'd never call it success, more like mitigated losses.

Someone else pointed out, if these kinda posts go unchallenged, then in a few months some newb will dig it up and think "oh myc CAN beat out the mold" and hold on to a horrible jar.

Despite sounding like I'm "dumping shit" I would sincerely like to see the op actually grow, and I'm sure they could do it well if they really tried.
