Sad day for Morty
    #26433394 - 01/14/20 02:58 PM (4 years, 15 days ago)

Currently posting this with quite a bit of sadness in my heart - I've got 3 monotubs (5 qrts spawn in each) and two shoeboxes (2 quarts of spawn in each).
Coco coir and verm for substrate. Bucket tek with 4 quarts water, two quarts verm, 600g coir brick, etc...

Unfortunately, the first tub that has started to fruit has now shown some patches of mean green. It's got a damn gross hue to it and the sad part is- the rest of the tub is progressing so beautifully. Nice big pinset.

Tub two - I've got two white spots of obvious contamination that's about to turn green as well. Also, with a very promising pinset - but 4 days behind the other.

I've got a third monotub, it's about 30-40% colonized and is behind the others by another 4 days ish.



I've been into an old-school method of things and I think it's starting to catch up with me. I've never had a really bad contamination problem, but I'm almost positive it has come from my own lack of sterile Tek in the SAB or from my practice of using mp tape on my grain jars. I'm moving back to poly-fil for my jar lids. And I'm upping my sterile Tek in the SAB heavily.
Meh.... Such a sad ordeal.
Getting hit with green in two mono tubs in a row is a real kick in the balls.:thumbdown:

They're both from separate agar cultures as well...

I'm a fairly experienced grower, and I felt like the jars were clean-but I had to have introduced it into the SAB portion of my grow. Or- my outdated mp tape on the lids has fucked me. Either way, lots of failure going on over here. And coir doesn't contam by itself. Spawning isn't a sterile process....
So it just had to have been me in the SAB or agar portion. But I just can't see where it could have occurred. Agar to grain? Sigh....

Thanks for hearing my rant. Maybe it's just morale support I need.

:cheers: (from the local bar.... :frown: )
