I gave BIRTH! How do these look???
    #26486790 - 02/15/20 09:53 AM (3 years, 11 months ago)

Finally birthed these brf jars (Cambodian), all of which were stalled but had pins, some with heads. The consensus was possible contam, but only two had a pungent or dirt-like smell, so I ditched those and birthed the rest.

I washed away the uncolonized parts under the tap, which was more like digging my gloved fingers into parts with no myc and rinsing them away. There just wasn't a lot of separation between myc and sub. I then rolled or sprinkled some verm all around.

So I have four cakes with pins in my sgfc. I'm sure some are brusied from the digging and rinsing. Humidity is ~90%, temp is too low though, low to mid 60's so I'm adjusting room/house temp to bring that up.

Below are some pics.

Will these pins abort? Have they already?

And how do I know I'm not growing contam'd cakes? None knocked me over with a pungent smell, but this is my first rodeo so I don't know that I trust myself to smell test.

Are you misting those? Not looking so hot to me but I also have never done Brf so I could be wrong .How long have they been in the sgfc?

In the sgfc about 8 hours. Wondering if I should pluck those.

Also was told not to mist the cakes directly, but I did mist all around.

I would personally get rid of those as they’re probably not gunna grow just rot. Maybe make some tea? Then Just wait and see if you can get a flush going. But don’t take my works I’m not familiar with this tek and still a noob

:whathesaid: They might be contaminated..

Pushing out out a few lanky fruits trying to save its self before the contamination fully takes over is pretty common.

I’d keep them around just incase but toss soon as you know for sure.

Thats some odd looking shrooms. Looks like they grew invitro in the jars....

What kind of lighting do u have? Are u keeping the cakes moist, not overly wet or overly dry? Did u make a proper SGFC?

Also, trim down your tin foil, trimmed down as much as possible.

They were grown in Large mouth Pint jars if I remember. I would give them 10hrs in the SGFC, you will know if you need to pick them based on growth or lack of.

Yes, they grew invitro in the jars so they're wiry and bruised. The jars were tall half pints.

Thanks for the tips. Will trim down the foil and try to moisten the cakes without wetting the pins.

How will I know if any of these cakes are contaminated based on the fact that the jars stalled?
