Bulk Substrate Contamination
    #26960765 - 09/29/20 05:47 PM (3 years, 3 months ago)

Hello all, I've got a couple of containers of malbar in fruiting conditions right now and cant tell if its contaminated. I've had a hard time differentiating between healthy and contaminated substrate, maybe someone can help.

Doesn't look like contamination to me. Top pictures look like they have aerial mycelium which indicates you may have too little fresh air exchange. Can sometimes just be genetics as well though.

I'd increase FAE. Bottom pics look good :thumbup:

Here's a quote from Bod:

And here is some aerial mycelium

Likely from over hydrated substrate

That does look a bit suspect - does it seem slimy? (you can even wash your hands and touch it to see if it feels slimy)
