Grain smells like mildew
    #26419290 - 01/06/20 01:04 PM (4 years, 23 days ago)

Hi

I had some jars that looked like healthy mycillium but stopped growing. So I shook them a second time, cracked the lid and sniffed. Ever forget to put clothes in the dryer and they have that mildewy smell? That's what it reminds me of, only more pungent.

Advise?

Anytime a jar quits growing after a shake it’s most likely loaded with bacteria.

If it’s all you have you could let it sit, preferably somewhere a little colder than normal, and see if it recovers. I’ve gotten some good flushes with pretty rough spawn.

yeah that's a bummer, sounds like you grew some mildew. I agree with jcm4620, toss that shit.

If it didn’t recover after the shake then the mildew has probably won.
If they’re your only jars, you can keep it to see what happens and top fruit them if they finally recover, but they most likely won’t do anything but grow more mildew.

It was like 20 out of 100+ good. All one batch. I feel like I soaked them too long. It was all one batch. Does that the likely cause?

Thanks for your help!!
