Lol damn. Well at least it showed itself quick so I can bin it and reuse the jars. I got 2 jars of this and 2 jars with just agar drop with same plate. Agar wedge ones looks fine still, so maybe it's the LI I'm not doing right

That’s the power of li though.
If it was clean it’d pretty much be done by tomorrow.

huh. i never had an LI that did that. the wedge would always colonize and spread while 3 days later small fuzzies would appear here and there, then it slowly colonizes for a week.
never had something explode on me like that after 4 days total. so i thought it was pure bacteria. i already threw it, but would you have spawned a jar that looks like that? im not used to any type of mycellium besides thick and white haha so i dont really know if thats bacteria or mycellium + bacteria. the plate was supposed to be clean though. very uniform looking maz plate, though very light colored and whispy, but thats kind of what maz has always looked for me.

If you have an outdoor spot to spawn shitty grain you'll still get something for your efforts.

Idk, that jars pretty bad. It would depend how it looked in a few more days and what else I had going on.
Spawning stuff you know is dirty and paying attention to how it grows can help a lot with spotting problems in future tubs.
Plus you usually end up with a few shrooms/clones when it’s done.

Super easy to see what's going on with the mycellium with millet compared to rye. But this also means it's super easy to tell my jars are bacterial

That doesn't look bad to me yet, just very rhizo...and yeah millet is awesome for ID'ing contamination.
Give it a bit to see what happens.

There’s definitely a couple dark gooey looking ones in the middle that look suspicious.
Millet is awesome, just wait til you spawn a tub and have way more grains than normal.

one thing i noticed though, millet weighs like twice the amount as rye in each jar. im not accurately measuring or anything, but my 25lb bag is down to like 5lbs after only 16 jars or so. whereas 2lbs of rye makes 4 quart jars.
would you still spawn 1 quart jar per shoebox?

It expands a lot less that other grains and leaves little airspace in a jar. It is great for spawn but also doesn't go as far and is more expensive on top of that. Everything has a downside.
I've found personally that between lack of expansion and cost premium, a quart of millet spawn is around 3+ x the cost of rye or oats. Luckily it is still pretty cheap lol.

ok just making sure it wasnt just me. well it may make p9s high sub ratio tek more worth it. i cant see spawning millet to 1:1 or 1:2 be very cost effective. i do like the clarity the jars give though for watching contams.

Yeah since they’re smaller they fill the jar more than other grains.
You could probably use 2/3 the normal amount and end up with the same amount of spawn.
I usually only use straight millet for g2g masters though for the reasons smart just said.
