I think temperature fluctuation has a lot to do with it in this case (there's definitely something else goin on in there, I'm not in noob denial lol) but these get hit by the furnace - which I'm only just now realizing how dumb that is - and they're not far from a drafty window.

I'll spawn them to shoeboxes at about 1:2 and be cautiously optimistic. Not how I wanted to start my season but I think I've worked the bugs out of my process

I'm actually planning on putting mine in a large cooler this season to keep things steady. I know colonizing in the dark isn't a thing anymore but I also don't find that it actually hurts anything. My grow space is all brand new but unfortunately, the HVAC system is the same as before.

I've had a similar thought with the cooler but was concerned the heat generated by the spawn might turn it into an incubator. It's probably a non-issue and may still be a better option for me than having temp swings/condensation.

Just keep the lid cracked for FAE and ventilation. It'll still be night and day for stabilizing the temperature.

The grains inside the bottom gussets of my bags always seem to have trouble inoculating from g2g.

After I shake the bags, often the grain that was sitting at the bottom gussets remains wet looking and doesn't colonise properly.

Could this be that I'm not letting my grain dry enough? Bacteria or contam enter via poor tek? Normal? Shaking too late?

This thread has me thinking its dirty spawn and is no good to expand further.

Unfortunately it gets said A LOT in this thread, but that spawn is not happy at all. There is one camp that will say run it and see what you get and another that says to bin it and move on. Im not always sure where I land sometimes but personally I would write those off these days and not even try. I hate wasting substrate.

I usually fall on the side of 'run it and see what happens' but those don't look good, even to my low standards lol

Yeah I don’t think those will colonize enough to be worth trying.


Just remember with g2g any contam in the master that the myc might’ve run over will almost always explode in the new bag.

Okay.
I think it's finally clean.

i only has to smack it once and give it a couple brisk shakes. completely broken up. no 'death bombs.'

what is the verdict?
was planning to do g2g finally.

Replying here because I never remember which thread this is and I'm not sure it's linked to to in the stickies for identifying contam.

The super rhizomorphic "Spiky wet fans" as a sign of bacterial contam is a photo I always end up looking for.

Oh mannnnn
I think my wheat bags are fucked:facepalm3:
The smell of burning grain is wafting all over the estate. The stopcock is surrounded by soot. FUCK
I couldn't have run dry!

I did run a millet cycle dry and burned everything in there, but that was cause I kept forgetting shit like I was venting. Fucking chemo brain.



waiting till pressure drops to rip that bad boy open.

ALSO: Are there a fuckton of burst grains in this jar? And, are they too wet, after all? It's my first jar of wheat and I don't know what to look for. :shrug:

@sandman420 ty dood. :lol: i made the leap.

re: jar of wheat...toss it?

there was water to 1/2-inch below the insert wire grate in the AA. more will be revealed. the top bags are very puffy, but together. I sealed it back up so it would cool slowly.

I have this strainer:



The quart jar is for scale.

When I run wheat, can I just throw down the quickly drained wheat, spread it out and leave it overnight?

It does look pretty dang wet man. I would toss it.

I've found those big diy window screens dont really shed all the water. It will let some pool up and not go through. Maybe yours will work better with your neat reinforcement, I like that.


The way I do wheat is to hot water soak for a while and then rinse it and strain for only a short while so it is kinda wet but slightly underhydrated and it evens out in the cook. I think it's based on spitball jedi rye tek now I cant recall.

Updates:

The ridiculously wet jar seems to have righted itself overnight:



amiright?

The bags look like shite, but mayhap they, too, will suck up the extra moisture. In the bags I think I see a ton of burst grains?

I've been testing my resting times after PC'ing for my overnight soak birdseed. I've had bacteria when I noc'd it wet immediately. Gets to look real nice and dry at 2 days rest.

I know I know, if axenic, nothing matters... but reality is reality.
