Weird Pins a Mutation or Contam?
    #26885374 - 08/17/20 05:08 PM (3 years, 5 months ago)



Hey folks, does this look like a mutation or contam? It’s B+ oats to coir/verm.

Spawn looked great and it colonized well. I put it in fruiting conditions and, as it started to knot, it produced very fine metabolites uniformly across the substrate that never grew or pooled. Then, it started producing these big blobby capped pins. Anyone know what’s up?

Just my opinion but in my experience pins this mutated and numerous would point to a contamination.

But it very well could be genetics. I always worry once I see more than a couple mutants.🤷‍♂️

Thanks for the reply! I kind of thought the same.  This many mutants seems unlikely, for sure, but I’ve never seen a contam like this before.



Can anyone definitively say what’s up with these?  Should I toss the tub, or can these be eaten?

I think that is vert. I’m pretty sure that’s the contaminant that gives you splotchy caps and stripes on the stems. I think I see some little blobs too on the surface.

I don’t know for sure and if it is I don’t know anything about it really as far as being safe to eat. Most things are safe if they aren’t too gross lol. Someone who knows more than I may know this.

Yeah, after taking a look, vert seems like a really good guess.  I’m gonna toss it so it doesn’t spread.  I’m having trouble even giving away all my harvests lately anyways. Thanks, guys!
