Dark Discoloration on Stipe and Substrate
    #27043771 - 11/17/20 12:10 PM (3 years, 2 months ago)

Hello all,
I'm seeking opinions on some discoloration of the stipe and mycelium of a B+ subspecies grown using the PF Tek method.  Sterilization has been strict except for daily spritzing with a ~1:10 H2O2:H2O solution.  I'm inexperienced and wonder if anybody might lend some wisdom; are these simply spores?  Do I have a mold growing?  I'm inclined to believe that I'm just seeing spores since the vermiculite below the largest fruiting body is also somewhat discolored.  Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Oh fuck no man, not good. That right there is the dreaded Iamjustpullingyourlegoma bacteria.

Looks like it's dumping spores to me dude.

Oh shit, that's Iamjustpullingyourlegoma?  Supposed to be toxic if inhaled, right?  Thanks guys, I'm a real newb.  I should've written this in the original post, but is that fuzz/hairs on the stipe ordinary?

Thanks.  Here's another photo of some discoloration, a little lighter in color:

Keep an eye on it. Could be bruising but that's hard to see on pics

Will do.  Do you think it'd be wise to start spritzing with a higher concentration of H2O2 if it looks like it's growing?

Can't tell if that is blue or green looking discoloration.
If it is blue, you are fine.

On the other hand, you shouldn't have pools of water on your cake. Make sure your tub is getting enough air exchange.
