Dried Mushroom Contam? (Dark Green/Blue)
    #26612908 - 04/19/20 12:24 PM (3 years, 9 months ago)

Hi all, I recently got some dried pink buffalo from my friend and I was wondering if they had some sort of mold on them. They smell kind of funky but that might be because I've never smelled shrooms before? :confused: I wiped a q tip with some H2O2 on the stem and got this. I feel really bad about it but I'm not tryna get sick lol. Do you guys think this is contam?



OT:
I also got GT and Z prints from this friend and they were contaminated as hell :tongue: I finally managed to get a sterile agar plate of GT but the Z keeps getting overrun by this red contam. Is it normal to not see rhizomorphic growth when growing spores from a syringe? I'm on like the 6-8th transfer for the GT and it's finally clean, but still not rhizomorphic, and I'll be trying to grow it once I have enough on agar.

Thanks in advance!

Ime it takes a little longer to get rhizo starting from spores. But there’s also s bunch more factors to it.

As for gt I’ve only had halfway rhizo growth when I made plates specifically to induce it, all the rest were tomentose.

Those dry shrooms are normal, fine.

Are you talking about the blue green color on the stems??

That’s normal with active shrooms.

Yes I was, do you know what that's specifically called? I don't know if that's how bruising looks on dried ones but I was under the impression that bruising appears blue. No idea why it's greenish. Also I'm a little concerned because I could wipe some of it off with a q-tip.

Yeah that’s bruising from the psilocin oxidizing from what I’ve read.

The black stuff wiping off is almost definitely just spores. Looks like whoever harvested those let the caps open out far enough for them to shit spores all over the place. Perfectly fine tho, safe to eat.

Thanks, I wasn't sure about it cause I've never seen that happen. Can you tell I'm new, lol

What are they supposed to smell like? I'd say they smell kind of like an old gym sock.
