Mycelium to be or Mycelium not to be? That's the question.

Hello fellow shroomers.

As you can see, this is my first post. I'd like to start out thanking Tmethyl for his NEW CULTIVATORS GUIDE, bodhisatta for his many easy AF guides ( I wish I had found those earlier :thumbup: ) and Kizzle for his visual contams guide.

There are many others who also wrote good stuff but I was using another computer and cant recall the names  :goat: 

Anyways, I got my first batch running about 15 days ago: L. cincinnatus, pink pleurotus and Calocybe indica. The jars stood at around 26-28 C during the day and 20-23 during the night (tropical country here :sun: ).

Well, I've read some of those amazing materials, but its always hard (is it?) for the beginner's eye to differ penicilinum and other white mold contams from healthy mycelium. Also, they all look the same for me.  :facepalm3:

So, there it goes:







This above is the one looking best so far. I've read somewhere that the slurry bottom is norm for pleurotus, so I guess this one is ok. The substrate: millet and verm.



This one is growing on rice :crazy2: I had bought corn, but at home I noticed it was cracked corn :facepalm3:





This one was looking the most lush of all. Suddenly, it started to shrink and got less white. It has no signal of pinning yet, and it is very moist. I opened the jar to sniff and it smells sweet. I mean, literally sweet, like yeast - this is my first run so I still dunno how it should smell. :rolleyes:





Cincinnatus seems stalled. Yeah, its a woodlover, it should have been put on sawdust, but I had none and my wife was going mad for all the fuss happening in the kitchen...

I forgot to take a picture of Calocybe (it is in another room), but it is pretty much looking like the second photo. And that is my problem - everything looks like the same, but they are different species.

Today I've got some mango logs to grow em' on. Should I be putting those fellas at their new home, or tossed in the yard they go?

For what I've been reading, this is an awesome community, so thanks in advance :grin:
