Crazy Mutant "Bonsai" Tub
    #26798638 - 07/02/20 06:23 AM (3 years, 6 months ago)



Tl;dr at the bottom.

I started a tiny tub as an experiment because I had one jar of very old mycelium left over from a long time ago (I think it was at least 8 months old out of the refrigerator, and was starting to turn yellow). About a week after throwing a casing layer over it, I didn't see any pins, but noticed a big ole spot of blue-green mold about the size of a quarter. So I immediately quarantined it by putting the tub outside, saying I would take care of it later.
The next day, I saw a few pins, so I left it. It rained a lot while I was at work (which I now believe essentially dunked the cake), so when I got home, I drained the water, and put the lid back on it. I thought it was really done by this point, so I forgot about it for a couple of days. I didn't move it from where it was, so it got full sun for a few days in a row. Today, I went to go look at it. I harvested two broken veils, and more pins are showing up. AND- the mold spot is almost completely invisible. I've never seen that happen before. It's a god damn Christmas miracle.

Tl;dr: I left this contaminated bonsai tub outside for about a week. The contamination appeared to stop growing, and the mushrooms took over.

The extra fresh air outside tends to put most molds at a disadvantage. The mushrooms haven’t “won” per say however, with the mold stalled they have managed to do what they do. It’s not a miracle, it’s a basic understanding of science.
