Contaminated???
    #26741672 - 06/13/20 11:54 AM (3 years, 7 months ago)

This is my first grow, everything was going great until I opened the tub today and shrooms are blackened and formed a cotton moldy thing in the bottom of stems and some on the head (see pics). I read online this happens because of lack of fresh air. I will fan this b 100 times if I can save them.

Can someone tell me if these are contaminated or not? should I pick them and dry them or what should I do?


I really appreciate any info!
Thank you!!

Looks like just mycellium. But I would probably harvest those now, they're definitely mature

aahhh thank you!! I'll go ahead and harvest the mature ones now. My plan is to put them in food dehydrator to dry after harvest, then eat them.

Just an FYI, the black stuff is just spores. Once the veil breaks and the cap opens up they will start to drop spores. They're not harmful but can be a pain in the ass and they make your mushrooms look not good. I like to harvest mine right before the veil breaks. They look real pretty when dried and still have the same amount of active chemicals inside as when they're a little bigger at full maturity.

Good to know! Thanks for sharing. It was turning the substrate block a very dark purple/ blackish color and cotton was forming below the stem. Now I know thats just mycelium :smile:..what a relief
