I finally got a real contam! Almost happy about it...
    #26617224 - 04/21/20 09:28 AM (3 years, 9 months ago)

Hello there! This is DEFINITELY contam, I'm thinking Aspergillus/Penecillium?

It was a spawn-to-bulk bin that I made with some really old UB bags that were still sitting around, but I think the contam came from elsewhere:

Yesterday I found and opened a old tin that had some moldy garlic in it, which I immediately took outside and dumped but I guess some spores were still floating around and snuck into the bin. I really have to watch out for that in the future and make sure that I use up all my onions and garlic, and don't let them get moldy because that stuff flies around in the air and it's impossible to contain. I have an air purifier w/UV rays and ion suction or whatever it's called. It's going full blast right now in front of my other bins.

I'm going to salt it but I'm taking it elsewhere to finish spawning, if it can. I don't want it anywhere NEAR my GTs that are starting to pin right now.

That's green trich and if it's happening before your first flush
it most likely came from your spawn bags/jars. There's always lots
of contams in the surrounding air of your tubs no matter what you do.

Oh good I was worried it was in the air. Thanks for the definition, now I'll know trich when I spot it.

That was a tub I made with some really old spawn bags, I wasn't hoping too much that they fruited -- I just didn't want to throw them away.

Thank you again!!

Looks more like penicilinum to me, but the same applies. It's most likely from your spawn. Unless you used coffee grounds or some other shit like that in your bulk sub.

trich, aspergillus, penicillium... you'll need a scope to decipher.  just call it trich.  its usually that the spawn is bacterial/weak and that allows the trich to get a foothold on the sub
