is the yellow stuff in these pics a sign that my tubs are contaminated?
    #26476294 - 02/09/20 12:05 AM (3 years, 11 months ago)



I just noticed this when misting my tubs, which have been taking a long time to colonize

Edit: upon reading the sticky, it looks like metabolites, but these aren't fully colonized

here's the top of my tubs

they were spawned between 12/21 and 1/4 and the temperatures were on the colder end. sub is coco coir with coffee grounds (I've since learned better on the coffee) and the spawn is known clean PF tek cakes

uhh, the first two look like they might be metabolites? but it could be bacteria... the last one looks a little more fucked but it could be the lighting. do they smell off at all? also how often are you misting? my tubs would get kinda yellow from letting them dry out or misting them too much

it is just the lighting, it looks fine IRL. they all smell like fresh mushrooms, no odd smells that I can detect. I've let them dry out before and mist them every few days

if they smell fine then it’s probably not bacteria... but it’s weird that it’s taken so long for them to colonize. how cold has it been? unless it’s been like well under 60f i don’t think tubs should take that long...

Metabolites can manifest even before full colonization, but this seems to be in excess of normal. Monitor them for size changes. Does not look like bacteria.

also don't let your sub dry out between mistings. drying out a lot can cause that weird yellow color on the mycelium

I had to leave my place for a week and forgot to turn the heat up before I left, I'm lucky the pipes didn't freeze lol. but I do keep my place colder, I've turned up the heat recently

i totally feel it. i live in a place with colder winters too. it makes all aspects of growing so much slower in the winter months. what are your temps like in your grow room?

also, how are the tubs looking?

sorry for the late response I don't have a thermometer, so I don't know exactly. the tubs don't look any different than in the pics

I just spawned to bulk yesterday and it's already growing way better. when I prepare my coco, I boiled it (as instructions recommend you do) but the first time I spawned I didn't let it cool down all the way before mixing in spawn. is it possible I killed the spawn the first time around?

weird that you haven't seen any pinning yet! i think something is up with them. if you added in the spawn while the coir was still hot, you may have messed something hot depending on how hot it was

i'm glad your new grow is going well!!

the previous tubs were from PF tek cakes, and this one is from one of those premade grain spawn bags. I'ma still try PF tek, but I'ma do my next batch 50/50 just in case. I'll also be way more partiet in the future with the coco. is it possible for BRF cakes to "die" in the jar?

patience pays off in all aspects of this hobby!! it’s a good skill to have

i’m not sure about β€œdying” in the jar, if they aren’t contaminated they shouldn’t stall out or anything. sometimes using the tall half pints as opposed to the wide mouth half pints slows down colonization
