Contamination
    #28002823 - 10/17/22 08:40 AM (2 years, 2 months ago)

Hi,

Newbie here. My mycelium stopped cultivating after about 1 month. You can clearly see that stage as dense white mycelium,
Another month passed and I opened the ventilation holes and covered them with polyfill hoping that cultivation will start again. After yet another month now I have this different kind of mycelium, like soft cotton. The monotub's smell is like an old cellar. Nothing particularly funky but I don't know if it's alright.
I fear that it's some kind of a mold.
Could you check the photos and advise please.

Yeah that tub is gone, toss it. It should not take anywhere near 3 months to get a flush. Restart from spores, take your time, and make sure that you've got a clean culture on grains before you start a new tub. Good luck!

Doesn't hurt to dump it in the garden.  I've had some luck with my tossed tubs in the past.  Better luck next time!
