Thick white mat on cake (contam?) doesn’t look right

It’s B+ Cubensis, the rest of the grains are just fuzzy, doesn’t look like the other jars.

That looks funky. If there is a patch with a completely different looking texture that's bad news.

Did you use spores directly to grain?

I've done that too, and it just like everyone says. MS syringes to grain are a crap shoot.


PF Tek -> sgfc
Or
Agar -> grain -> shoebox or mono

These are pretty bulletproof methods if you follow Teks to a T.

That’s some kind of contamination.

It sucks to hear when all you have and plan on using is syringes (don’t know if that’s the case with you) but as long as you go syringe straight to anything you have no control over what’s happening. It’s a gamble.

You can be as sterile as possible and do everything right and still end up with mold and bacteria - even with syringes from the best vendors. The mushrooms grow in open air and other spores stick to them so when they’re printed you can get contaminant spores riding along and then they go into the syringe.

Agar is the coolest part of mush cult I think.
