Can contaminated spores or mycelium produce non contaminated mushrooms?

If the spore syringe is contaminated or the mycelium during colonization, can it still produce mushrooms/fruiting body’s that aren't contaminated?

Yes, putting the spores on agar gives you the ability to transfer the mycelium you want away from stuff you don't want. Simple enough but sometimes more difficult than it sounds.

Is it possible to get non contaminated mushrooms from Contaminated mycelium colonization/spore syringe without using agar?

Yes, it's possible. Some luck may be involved, but it's possible

It depends on the extent of the contamination. Some people will still harvest at least a first flush of spawn that was a little bacterial. Some will even harvest shrooms from tubs w/ mold, provided that the mold isn't visibly growing on the fruits themselves

But just because you don't see contams on fruits does not mean they are not there. You are taking a risk if you choose to consume (or give to others) shrooms of a contaminated tub. I'm not saying it's a good idea, I'm just saying it's not impossible that the shrooms won't have contams on them

If contamination can go undetected on the fruiting body’s could it also go undetected during mycelium colonization? If so wouldn't there always be a risk of contamination?
