What kind of contam is this?
    #26636489 - 04/29/20 10:28 AM (4 years, 8 months ago)

Can someone tell me what type of green mold this is? Had a monotub that I stupidly accidentally spilt unused coffee grounds in and a couple days later had a bright white mycelium (mold) developing with green growth on the monotub Wall, cut out a third of my tub and harvested the rest, but the contam has returned with visible green growth, are my mushrooms safe to eat? Here’s photos of contam

pretty hard to tell what kind of mold it is without a microscope could be penicillium, aspergillus, or trich... if the mold is not growing right on your mushrooms, then you should be good to go... at least that is the widely accepted opinion around here

Yeah I agree on that, just parionod it could be one of the more toxic molds but seems like the common consensus is if the  mushroom “looks  good it is good” , as I believe mycelium doesn’t carry the toxics like a traditional plant would

hmm, some mushrooms are considered "hyperaccumulators" of certain things, heavy metals for example... when they are present in the environment, the mushrooms will suck it up. I think that the situation is different when the "toxins" are produced by another mushroom, I think that they will kind fight each other, trying to basically poison or devour each other. Therefore if the mold is not growing on your mushrooms, it probably didn't get there yet and your shroom is as clean as it gets.
