Contamination? Pics included
    #27081765 - 12/10/20 08:37 AM (3 years, 1 month ago)

I've seen this before.  What I've done in the past is sterilized a spoon and just gently scooped out the stuff that looks a bit off.  I've been able to get flushes out of them without it coming back. 

I tried the same thing this time and it's coming back.  It's only on the surface (for now anyways it's come back overnight and seems to spread fast).  Everything looked great up to and including casing...until a few days in.

The color doesn't do it justice, some is white but a bunch of it has a grey color which doesn't seem to translate well from my camera.

Thoughts?

Grey is cobweb mold. The white is mycelium. Spray a solution of hydrogen peroxide to combat cobweb mold. I have heard it kills it real good. Search for the solution ratio I think its 3%. Don’t focus on beating it, spray it by all means. But focus on where your techniques can be improved.

Thanks.  I did spray it a bit earlier today although sparingly although it didn't completely melt as I thought it would.  3% solution.  The peroxide won't damage anything?  Will it fruit ok and be edible even if it grows with some of the mold in there?  When you say don't focus on beating it but spray it, should I just spray and let it go?  I can't figure out why this happens from time to time, I've followed the same process every grow.

Only thing I can think of is not sure if there is enough FAE - when I would mist and fan this didn't seem to be as big an issue, now that I just check up on it once a day or so to make sure it's looking ok seems to be more frequent.

Just bad wording sorry. Peroxide isn’t good for anything living but it affects cobweb more, is all I know. Cobweb will also grow much faster than mycelium thats another way to tell. I don’t have much experince with cobweb but I am pretty sure it likes stale air so it could be lack of FAE
