I will give them one last shot before I go over to mycotopia. I am getting ready to birth these jars. What is going on with the white fuzz. Do I remove it? Soak it off? Leave it?

The colonization changed when I started using gypsum

I’m fairly sure that’s not normally healthy mycelium but I’d wait for a tc to say something or at least someone who’s more confident in their response. You’d hate to fruit something then it end up sporing and causing a terrible mess of contam spores in the room you use for everything.🤷‍♂️

Exactly, I just built a new fruiting chamber, the old one needs to be completely cleaned. I do not know what happened I was doing great for about 6 months then everything kind of crumbled. No pins, no second flushes, knats. The crappy part is I am much cleaner, much more precise but the results are sucking a lot more than when I first started. Lots of stuff in the pipeline but you see the issue with the jars. I am branching out to different teks like Spiderman and eventually monotub. Once I open them later I will know by the smell. I will be super bummed if they are toast, its like summer of no love. First picture is the current FC I think its toast. I have been grinding the cakes into a patch in the garden. The next pictures are when things were going good.

That first pic there, those cakes look really dark and wet. In fact, everything looks really wet. You have to dial in your conditions. The mushrooms like humid air with quick evaporation. The more you mist the less evaporation happens. They also like fresh air occasionally.  I wouldn’t even mist your cakes for the first flush. Also if white mycelium starts yellowing, you can probably assume the cake is bacterial and may never fruit. Look at your sterile tek, and follow the P.F. tek to a T. I like Ziran’s updated P.F. tek guide

Those are infected with white mold of some type brother sorry.

Fungus of some sort growing in three with your mycelium.

Those big white bright patches...

I opened three, they did not smell like shrooms. I tossed two in my garden pile soaking one. They are almost 4 weeks in but not very solid. The one I broke apart was actually pretty crumbly. I am bummed, I use clean standards and better procedure and get worse results. The only normal growth I recognize is off a print I tried. Looks like time to make more jars.

I think that is what happened. They got too much of everything. I automated with a usb fan and have a lot more holes in the bin. I am making a second one to spec and trying to recover anything I can. The jars might be toast. I wonder if its too much water in my mix? or not PCing them long eough(60 minutes) The gypsum has been a real bust for me.

I follow this pretty closely minus not touching the verm with my hands and using a kitchaid to mix. I am ditching the gyp for now.
