Why am i getting cobweb mold EVERY grow?
    #26555355 - 03/24/20 03:45 PM (3 years, 10 months ago)

Every grow i do i get cobweb mold. Everytime! What am i doing wrong? I do 64qt monotubs, different types. Some have alot of FAE holes and some have less. I use a brick of coco coir (750 grams) and 2 qts of vermiculite and 1 cup of gypsum for my substrate. I use 5qts of water to that. I make sure its at field capacity. For spawn ive used rye berry grain in some and popcorn kernels in others. Some tubs have 6 2in holes filled with polyfil (lose) 5in above substrate and other tubs have those same holes plus 1/4in holes 1 in apart from eachother about a 1/2 in above substrate level those i cover in micropore tape. But like i said every time i get cobweb mold before the sub even colonizes. Can anyone tell me what im doing wrong or give me any tips or advice on how to not get cobweb mold? Or is it maybe even coming thru the AC vent? Idk, please help.

Are you sure its cobweb mold? Sometimes people misidentify fluffy mycelium for cobweb mold since they look similar to each other.

Yeah im pretty sure. Its grayish and spreads across the surface. A few days later the mycelium will show up. Ive fought thru it before and the mushrooms will grow but they all turn to aborts and only get about an inch to 2in tall. Ive hit it with peroxide other times and itll just come back

If its greyish then yeah its probably cobweb mold. I would guess your fruiting environment maybe too dirty :shrug:

Maybe try get an indoor air filter perhaps?

I suspect poor spawn. Once you have fungal contaminations it is better to get rid of them instead of trying to combat them.

You talking about this?



It's probably in your spawn. How many days after spawning is that?
