Suspected contamination. Citrus smell.
    #26860412 - 08/03/20 09:53 AM (3 years, 5 months ago)

I have been doing the popcorn tek for years and ran across something new yesterday.  I had 8 quart jars fully colonized and intended to case them in straight vermiculite.  On another page I had read a post about making sure to ALWAYS smell jars before casing.  I've been doing this tek for years and honestly rarely smell jars.  Contamination is usually obvious.  Out of curiosity I gave each jar a sniff before causing.  Half of the jars had the typical mycelium/mushroom smell.  The other half had a distinct citrus smell but otherwise looked like perfectly healthy mycellium, maybe a little extra fuzzy.  I chose not to use them.  Has anyone encountered this?  Are these jars usable?  Like I said they look perfectly fine.  I would have cased them had I not given them the sniff test.
