Is this blue mold?
    #27308893 - 05/14/21 07:14 PM (3 years, 7 months ago)

So I’m growing my first batch of APE and this patch of blue spring up the other day and has slowly been growing, any idea what this might be and is this tub a loss?
This tub was started exactly 3 weeks ago.

I honestly dont know, but if I were to take a shot in the dark maybe some sort of rot from bacteria/mold? It looks like bruising but also looks like the myc has been eaten away?
Is it mushy or smell weird?

That little patch missing is from my taking a pinch out loll wasn’t wearing my glasses so I wanted a closer look at it. It bruise dark blue in my hand and around the edge of the missing area. It doesn’t smell off but the mushy smell isn’t as strong kinda damp if that makes sense, I’m also coming off a cold so my sense of smell is kinda shot

Your tub is contaminated. Underneath that patch of blue there is contamination brewing. The bruising is the result of the myc getting fucked from underneath. It does not have long.

Did something fall on it? Looks like there's a chunk of myc ripped off the surface

If so, it's just bruising. It sure looks like it

Suspect that only that one spot isn't colonized. Did you case at spawn? Looks uncased.. Strange situation here, looks like it was sprayed with iso in one or two spots, ha. Idk whats happening there, but I but you woul've avoided it if you case it when you spawned the tub. Just a tin ass layer of coir on top will do great.

There are blue spots randomly throughout the tub. Unless op's been poking at it further. That little divit shudnt create that big bruise unless he punched the sub b4 removing a small chunk.

If you have bruised patches justa randomly appear in your shit, it's dunzo.

@feaseoghorm the blue spot has been there the past couple days, I just cut out that chunk with an blade 10 mins before posting this. The sub was being naughty and asked for it, I couldn’t resist!! Loll

So is the consensus that this tub is dunzo?

i’ve also read that surface bruising can be indicative of contams brewing below the surface. but if you’re fucking with the sub a bunch it’s also gonna bruise, so if it wasn’t that bad before you started fucking around with it you’re probs fine to leave it & see what happens just so you know for the future. your other tubs will be fine. if you’re really worried just put it in a different area while it fruits. i’ve kept tubs w trich in the same room & been fine

The only time I ever tried to grow APE I had 4 shoeboxes do this. I just thought it was bruising so I left them alone. A few days later they all turned green. Sorry m8

Possibly sweet lady trich.  There are Ops that swear that they can have tubs of sporulating (turned green) tricoderma next to perfectly healthy tubs and nothing has ever spread. There are other dudes that will tell you to burn your fucking house down at the first sight of it.  I figure it's best to remove a sporulating tub so as not to introduce copious amounts of death spores into your lab.

I’ve had trouble with trich in the past it usually pops up after the first flush. I’ve since bought a molekule air purifier in hopes that it helps my air quality but not sure if it’s possible to really get rid of the spores once they are in a room/house.

You were right woke up this morning and checked the tub and trich is popping up on the blue patches around the edges. Hopefully I have better luck with my other tub, I still have yet to experience APE’s.
Thanks again for all the insight much appreciated!
