Possible oatspawn contamination
    #26888739 - 08/19/20 04:11 PM (3 years, 5 months ago)

Okay! I have been dealing with contamination - first tries I was confused and basically "canned" my oats with sealed lids and a crappy pressure cooker - all my jars morphed into spongiform mycelium.
I managed to snag a Presto (the whole world is canning during covid!!!)
I am using Bod's tek - so not using any gypsum (should I???)
In this last batch I have what looks to be normal growth and then what I believe is spongiform starting about 3/4 down the jar. These jars are at day 10. My first thoughts are that my oats are too wet.

Should I use gypsum?
How many days on average should an oat spawn grow in quart jars using agar wedges take?
And, in terms of agar - more syringes or do agar folks use spore prints equally?
I have not had much success with the two syringes I used.
Right now I have some plates in the fridge but I am trying to troubleshoot and I am thinking I should be introducing new spores to my cultivation to eliminate the possibility that I am unknowingly culturing a contaminant.








Thank you
