Hey guys I just noticed the bluish area on my gt grow is it contam or brusing? It’s side pinning like a mother fucker too only like 10 pins on the top. I spray it Atleast once a day to keep up surface conditions. Temps at like 74 all day.

Hmmm weird. The blue looks like bruising to me. The uncolonized area is odd. But if you can get some fruits and make a clone on agar or some prints then you can keep on keepin on.

There are a ton of fruits their just all side pinned and the weirdest part is you can see the myc under that area it’s like 1/64 inch of uncolonized grain/coir. And I have been spraying daily I’m guessing that’s what’s causing the bruising?

Usually when side and bottom pins happen its like they're painted solid on there by the hundreds! That's why I still tape my tubs. Was this tub of your up in air like on a shelf or so? I still tape mine cause when they're stacked and not taped they side and bottom pin like crazy. I tape em and it never happens again

Lol yup it was on the second shelf of a rack. I just started a PE tub a few days ago and I taped that one. The side and bottom pins basically ruin your second flush tbh

The 'coloring' looks to me like a gradient of myc wrestling bacteria for that corner.

Damn! I envy that beautiful looking grow... makes me want to give mono another whirl at it... since my last two tubs failed. I used the same LC on 12 pint cakes I started Feb 18. Here are pics below

Eyy there, If these are contamed, what would you say it is? I used that same lc couple weeks prior on birdseed and I got pinning in the jars,... fingers crossed my liquaculture is good. Could the yellowing not just be from the jars being incubated to warm?? I shook the fuck outta them along the way was well.

last year i had a grow that was similar--almost all pinning was on the sides and bottom. with some advice from the forum, i turned it upside down and moved it to a bigger tub, with plenty of space on all sides. the side pins had space to grow out and up, and the bottom ones (now on top) righted themselves and grew straight up. i ended up getting a few flushes out of it (i think they were blue meanies or something like that...it's been a while), so it definitely ended up a successful grow (by my standards, anyway).

Pinning in jars is usually a sign of contamination. It looks like bacterial contamination. You shouldn't incubate your jars it just makes it better for contams and barely increases the growth of mycelium. It's better to just keep them at room temp 68-72°F with indirect light.

Thanks for the tip. Not sure how motivated I am now lol being how I'm no longer sure about my LC. I thought pinning happens in the jar if you wait too long to birth. I'll post a pic of a birdseed jar I believed to be pinning.

That can be the cause also seems how complete colonization is the best trigger and that's the problem with LC is you never know. Agar is really the best way to go.

Maybe better but still not great. Ditch the LC, it may not be rocket science but it will punish you when you get it wrong. Lessons have been learned at my house. Now I make LC with zero fae and use it all in one go once colonized.
