[Monotub] Contam?
    #27816956 - 06/13/22 12:36 AM (2 years, 7 months ago)

Hello everyone,


Attached are pictures of 2 monotubs who are both 2 weeks into colonization (psilocybe Cubensis jars to rye grain/coco choir subtrate).

I'm pretty sure #1 is done for, and #2 seems ok.

Do you concur?

Many thanks!

Those both look like trash candidates to me unfortunately. In 2 weeks time they should be near 100% colonized if not already even most slower varieties would be. The one that's mostly brown looks like some sort of mold is what's on top and that tub with the huge patch of white/green is trich 100%

:whathesaid:

Those are both trash.  I see absolutely no colonization points in either tub, so I suspect your spawn was dirty.

Contaminated, sorry man.

Did you smell each jar before adding?

What was your metric to gauge the spawn was clean?

Hello CannabisKid,


I don't recall the jars smelling bad, they actually smelled like fresh shrooms. Also the jars looked healthy and they colonized in 3 weeks. Too bad...

What did you transfer from a "psilocybe cubensis jar" to rye grain and how did you do it?  Was agar ever used to see whats growing in the culture?

Right, I wasn't clear enough.

I sterilized rye grain jars equipped with self-healing ports, then injected 1 milliliter of spore solution into each jar using the port. Shook the jars after 3 weeks. One week after that, they were fully colonized and had a strong, white color.

After colonization was full, I mixed boiling water with coco choir, let it cool for a few hours, then mixed the spawn with the coco choir. I put around 1.5 inches of casing.

The jars' smell was very strong (to the point where it could make you uncomfortable if you smelled it for too long), but it smelled like fresh cubes (again, only much stronger).
