Hello all,
After recently having great success in the world of agar I decided to get some jars and level up my spawn game.

Everything appeared to be going swimmingly (following BOD's unreal TEK's) until I noticed what looks like penicillium (dusty, bluey-green in colour) infecting my jars!

I tossed two already and have just noticed some individual grains in two of my remaining jars that appear infected.

My question:

What is the likely cause of this infection? It seems that my SAB technique is effective as the contamination has only appeared toward the bottom of the jars, suggesting to me that it somehow was already in the jars after PC'ing, or that it has somehow entered through my Polyfil lid filter and made it past the growing mycellium?

Appreciate all comments and input, off to make some more oat spawn ASAP!

I would guess as your jars  cooled the spores got sucked in through a defective filter or one that wasn’t seated properly or if you didn’t cook them for two hours at 15 psi in a pressure cooker. Try letting the PC cool inside the SAB.
It could’ve came from the syringe you used or hitched a ride on the transfer in your SAB .
Did you flame your needle ?  I use a little squeeze bottle of isopropyl alcohol and give my needle a power flush before the flame. A drop of isopropyl won’t kill the syringe and it’ll ensure that connection sterile or at least sanitized .
Anyway moldy cakes are a good addition to the garden compost pile You’re either get mushrooms and/ or you’ll be enriching your compost .
By the way , shaking  them jars from day one may have prevented that from happening by letting the fungus colonize the entire jar rapidly ,out competing any contamination.
It’s also easier to dump the out after it’s fully colonize when it’s all loose and not clumped up into a singular mass.

Amazing thread among countless others, thanks Bod

Hi guys!
Sry if it's off topic, but does anyone know, where can I buy spores in Austria in person (in a shop, no online store)?

Hello. Do you have any experience using cracked corn during inoculation? I read in the thread you only use oats, at least now, but if you've dabbled with them I'd appreciate your input on using it.

Hi! I'm new to growing shrooms, and, as many other people, I decided to start with Grow Kit, because it looks more simple.
I wanted to grow Golden Teacher strain.

Instructions for my kit said I should immerse it into water for 5-50 minutes (I immersed for 10), then put the cake in the box into growing bag, add some water to the bag and keep it closed until pinning starts.
After ~ two weeks nothing happened so I started googling and found out I actually need FAE for pinning. I started doing FAE and some shrooms appeared, but they're strange and seems not fully grown. I mist them almost every day, but nothing helps.

What am I doing wrong? Is there a chance for actually growing smth from this cake? How much time should I wait before considering this shrooms an abortion, remove the grown ones and try to get the second flush? How do I get it? The instruction said I should immerse the cake into water for 5-50 min again and then do the same steps, but this instruction seems to be wrong
Sorry, I wasn't able to find how to make photos any smaller
