Moisture in bulk myco bags
#26404903 - 12/28/19 03:17 PM (4 years, 1 month ago) |

Hello!
So I recently spawned to bulk into my .5 filter myco bags. I’ve waited about 6 days and in that time the moisture content has exploded to the point of being concerning. I am writing to ask if I should 1. Burp the bags to release some of the built up humidity. 2. Dump the bags that have any moisture built up in the bottom. 3. Quit tripping
The bags are almost ready to go into fruiting conditions but I’ve been waiting for all of them to get on the same page. ( three different varieties)
Thank you everyone in advance! I will upload pictures here in about an hour when I get back to them!

How many bags you got? Try something different with each bag and learn what works best.
I always err on the side of dryer substrate but if I really couldn't just leave it and see what happens, I'd wait for significant colonisation (to try to minimise risk of a contam taking hold) then try to suck out some moisture with a syringe and needle, followed by a quick taping of the holes in the bag, all in a SAB if possible.

Just drop the humidity in the incubation area and that should help on the inside of the bag

Thanks for the advice y’all!
I have 40 bags going at the moment I think I’m going to lower the humidity in the room using a de humidifier. I may use a syringe to take out some of the pooling!
Thanks for the tips y’all!

Room temps are 75-77. I massaged the bags a bit today to pool the liquid together and then dumped it out of the bags fairly successfully. They are much less liquidy

They look really rough.
You can try and fruit them, but I wouldn't expect much.

What do you think is the issue? Contaminated? This is my first attempt so I’m as noob as they come.

This is a good bag of PE6 that I had in the beginning and trust me it was by chance. Most bags go bacterial...

I'd go ahead and fruit them...if it's only bacteria they will still produce fruits.

Thanks for the pointers sir! I’ve started opening and fanning them twice a day. I didn’t spray them until today and had gotten out a lot of moisture. Truthfully it looks like a few have recovered a bit.

Fackkkkk
I’ve wanted to be in denial about it. But I’m about to toss almost 20 bags m. I just don’t know how it happened. Everything looked great until a few days ago and then BAM

Just out of curiosity, why did you try to do 40 bags as your first grow?
