Any idea what went wrong?
    #26702184 - 05/28/20 04:19 PM (3 years, 7 months ago)

This is the first time I’ve come across this problem in 10+ years of growing on/off... All the tubs look like this one. I’ve tried everything from leaving pollyfil out, taping you the holes, dunking the tub. Nothing worked and they all look like this tub. They also smell like very healthy mycelium.

These tubs are over 4 weeks old now, the temp was between 68-75, have a fan on low in the corner. Strain is ‘Cambodia’ from mushrooms.com

Just curious to what it could be because I’ve never had this in like I said 10 years or so....

It looks like the pins started growing mycelium, but what really happened is that white mycelium is a different species of white mold or a mushroom parasite like Hypomyces sp.

You likely didn't do anything wrong, just unlucky, certain mushroom parasites are seasonal, tending to emerge more in spring and fall, perhaps you just have bad timing.

What about the likely hood of the spores being compromised in the syringe?

Op did you put them to agar or straight to grain?

I don't believe they would have made it this far if the syringe was contaminated, it would have showed up much sooner, these pins were a few days from maturity.

Test the syringe on agar.

So do you think it was dirty spawn Tmethyl?

I think something moved in on it soon after he spawned, or during the spawn.
If it was in spores it would have showed up during the first spawn colonization, it would have stalled out in the jars, and this stuff would have filled in the empty spaces.
It never would have made it to full size pins.

It's not a normal or common contamination that's for sure.

Yeah I have seen it before a few times. It just makes me wonder if it is environmental or in the spawn. Thanks.
