Need some input on this jar?
    #26365240 - 12/06/19 02:56 PM (4 years, 1 month ago)

This jar has been colonized for about 3 weeks or so. Waiting on some other jars to  finish up so I can spawn them all together. Anyway, I just was checking some of them out and noticed weird bluing?

Unsure if mycelium can become bruised while within a jar like so.. but just wondering if I could have some input. Never have had this happen before. All other jars seem to be well.. other than this.

Here are some pictures. Hard to get a picture than meets the eye standards at times but I tried..


And these are some of the others. The mycelium looks healthy. But just that one jar has those off spots.

Should be ok but keep an eye on it. I had a jar do the same thing while I was waiting for others to finish. Pretty sure mine was from dryness.

I was told to watch and make sure it’s actual bruising and not something spreading.

I'm under the impression that it is bruising. I was just curious as to why. Possibly from sitting for 3 weeks? Idk. Never really sat on colonized jars for more than a few days in the past. So never have experienced bruising on a colonized jar.

Hoping that's what it is nonetheless. It is spots throughout the whole jar mostly.

if you colonize for too long, they always get very blue when you break them up.. 

jars look good to me.

Explain further? You're saying a colonized jar for extended periods of time become blue? Or because of being shaken causes them to be blue? I haven't shaken this jar in over 3 weeks.

Unfortunately, I don't peep hardcore at my jars. I kinda just let them do their thing unless its something completely obvious. But I was just checking this out and noticed those spots. Not sure how long they've been there or whatever.

I'm not greatly concerned as my logic and procedure is telling me it's nothing more than bruising.. but I also don't let my ego get in the way like I know it all and a fresh set of eyes never hurt. Also, someone that's more informed than me may consider this a higher matter and may actually be a bigger issue than I'm giving it credit for.

shaking can cause the bluing.. the longer it sits.  It won't usually blue if it's freshly colonized at 100%.  you will likely start getting pins.  as the mycellium matts up in a jar thats over colonized, all the extra matted mycellium turns blue eventually, just like a mushroom would.  3 weeks would do it.

I’ve never had bruising from shaking, even after three shakes but I’ve also never shook a particularly old jar. The times I’ve had bruising just came from nowhere after sitting forever. I think it was also slightly bacterial.

Well I haven't shaken it in 3 weeks. Tbh, I'm not even sure I shook this one. I think I just let this one run its course while I waited for the others to all be done at once.

Would definitely like to know why this may be. Don't want to spawn a bad batch. Just never seen something of such. And like I said.. I never sat on colonized jars for this long. Usually it's a few days apposed to a few weeks.
