Transparent slightly yellowish jelly on the bottom of monotub...
    #26502408 - 02/24/20 10:37 PM (3 years, 10 months ago)

Hi, ive been messing around with a mono (50/50 method) I had some issues initially, and made some bad calls, due to not having experience adjusting to dry winter conditions... long story short i ended up over watering the tub, and all the water gathered in a rather large "trench" that runs around the edge of my tub... Its under control now, but i got a lot of side pinning and needed to flip the sub onto a cookie sheet and then clean the sides. When i flipped it over i noticed a slightly yellow, transparent, jelly like substance on the sub that came from the wettest corner of the tub (about 1/8 thick, covering a few square inches). I cut all the jelly off, and cut the ridge from the sub so the entire thing is elevated out of the trench when its in the tub. The tub has been doing great since (7 flushes so far and more mushrooms than i know what to do with, or have places to store) Its kind of just a science project at this point. No more signs of a large jelly mass.

My question is - Is that jelly likely a contamination, or some sort of secretion/reaction of the mycelium to standing water? And if it is likely some sort of contam, does eating any of the mushrooms pose a health risk? (food poisoning/etc.) It smells fine, the mushrooms looks very healthy, but occasionally ill pull out some mushrooms that grew in the trench, and sometimes they are slimy... im not sure if its just because they are wet, or if its the jelly contam (ive been throwing the slimy ones away) I have no pics.

Thanks, and sorry for the wall of text.

Nobody is going to be able to give you answer without pics.

With the information given, the advice I will solicit is that yes, you have a bacterial infection. Not a problem as long is make it through the first flush. On the other hand, it could destroy your tub before that.
