cobweb contam maybe?
    #28039707 - 11/08/22 06:19 AM (1 year, 2 months ago)

Im new to this whole mycology thang... but does this look normal as far as surface conditions go?  im sure i had some contamination at some point.... its the only thing i can think of that has caused it to creep near the 2 month mark and not produced... Thoughts and concerns?

Hey! Whats the temperature in your FC?
2 months in with no pins is at least weird in my short experience, Im asking about temperature because although it looks a lot like some cobweb contam pics I could find, it could also be something about the environment.

it has fluctuated between 75 and 80 degrees.  nothing too crazy.  if you think it might be cobweb, what do you think the best coarse of action would be?  i have two shoe boxes just in case of such an event i would have two chances to save them.  ok so i have tried the 3% peroxide with what looks like zero effect.  the other box i scooped the top layer of the suspected cobweb and sprayed it down with the 3% peroxide and have decided to try and re-colonize.  what do you think maybe i should do?  i will post updated pictures on the other one tomorrow after some growth has occurred.  thanks!!!:grin:

I'd probably wait some more time before spraying and scooping anything else other than regular misting.
It might just be some funky myc formation(never had to deal with cobweb so really not sure unfortunately. Better wait till some other more experienced member sees the thread.). Temperature is great so no harm in waiting a couple more weeks.
Be patient and I hope everything works out and that some other cobweb experienced member sees this :smile:

This is not the right forum for this.

Ask a mod to move it to the cultivation forum for you.

That being said, your photo isn't clear enough to see any kind of mold.

wait... so your job is to just tell people to ask mods to move threads around?  seems kinda pointless...  do you get paid well for being a hallway monitor?

Thanks for your help.  i will give it a while longer to see what happens.... im thinking that maybe i didn't do the bulk sub-straight correctly or i got some dirty coco coir.  oh well live and learn... i mean acid was accidentally discovered by a guy riding his bike home for lunch through a rye field that had not been harvested, so i guess anything is possible.

Why would I be trolling you, I am here to help.
I've been here since 02, I don't have time to troll people on the internet.

Your pic is blurry and difficult to zoom in to see the surface correctly.

Also don't stress about your original post being in the wrong forum, it happens.
No one should harass you here.

I think it's more a lack of knowledge than a joke.

Op, educate yourself with the bit of information Wiki has;

ok since everyone here is so fond of educating other people... i will educate you mr. 200 plus threads...  from the wikibook itself "Bicycle Day"
Not to be confused with the United Nations designated World Bicycle Day.
Bicycle Day
BICYCLE DAY HOFFMAN 25 TABS.jpg
LSD blotter commemorating Bicycle Day
Type Secular
Celebrations Consumption of lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD)
Observances Honors the anniversary of the first ever acid trip, undergone by Swiss chemist Dr. Albert Hofmann on April 19, 1943 in Basel, Switzerland.
Date April 19
Next time 19 April 2023
Frequency Annual

On April 19, 1943, Hofmann ingested 0.25 milligrams (250 micrograms) of the substance. Less than one hour later, Hofmann experienced sudden and intense changes in perception. He asked his laboratory assistant to escort him home. As was customary in Basel, they made the journey by bicycle. On the way, Hofmann's condition rapidly deteriorated as he struggled with feelings of anxiety, alternating in his beliefs that the next-door neighbor was a malevolent witch, that he was going insane, and that the LSD had poisoned him. When the house doctor arrived, however, he could detect no physical abnormalities, save for a pair of incredibly dilated pupils. Hofmann was reassured, and soon his terror began to give way to a sense of good fortune and enjoyment, as he later wrote:

    ... Little by little I could begin to enjoy the unprecedented colors and plays of shapes that persisted behind my closed eyes. Kaleidoscopic, fantastic images surged in on me, alternating, variegated, opening and then closing themselves in circles and spirals, exploding in colored fountains, rearranging and hybridizing themselves in constant flux ...

The events of the first LSD trip, now known as "Bicycle Day", after the bicycle ride home, proved to Hofmann that he had indeed made a significant discovery: a psychoactive substance with extraordinary potency, capable of causing significant shifts of consciousness in incredibly low doses. (The term trip was first coined by US Army scientists during the 1950s when they were experimenting with LSD.)[7] Hofmann foresaw the drug as a powerful psychiatric tool; because of its intense and introspective nature, he could not imagine anyone using it recreationally.[8] Bicycle Day is increasingly observed in psychedelic communities as a day to celebrate the discovery of LSD.[9][10][11]

The celebration of Bicycle Day originated in DeKalb, Illinois, in 1985, when Thomas B. Roberts, then a professor at Northern Illinois University, invented the name "Bicycle Day"[a] when he founded the first celebration at his home.[12] Several years later, he sent an announcement made by one of his students to friends and Internet lists, thus propagating the idea and the celebration. His original intent was to commemorate Hofmann's original, accidental exposure on April 16, but that date fell midweek and was not a good time for the party, so he chose the 19th to honor Hofmann's first intentional exposu

i do realize he didn't go through a rye field on the bike... but where did he get the fungus for acid at?  he didn't synthesize it.

LSD is derived from ergot fungus and synthesized in a lab.

Actually, they did. And Hofmann famously wrote a book detailing the whole story. It is freely available from the MAPS institute at the link below.
https://maps.org/images/pdf/books/lsdmyproblemchild.pdf

Quote from the man himself"
Quote:


Time and again I hear or read that LSD was discovered by accident. This is only partly true. LSD came into being within a systematic research program, and the "accident" did not occur until much later: when LSD was already five years old, I happened to experience its unforeseeable effects in my own body—or rather, in my own mind.

...

Since only ergotamine was available as a pure alkaloid, and was already being produced in kilogram quantities in the pharmaceutical production department, I chose this alkaloid as the starting material for my work. I set about obtaining 0.5 gm of ergotamine from the ergot production people.

I posted the wiki link and it clearly says he synthesized lsd in a lab prior to taking a bike ride.

Hofmann first synthesized LSD on November 16, 1938

Why are you so against education? Look at all these resources that the knowledgeable members here have posted. That is one reason I am happy this site exists and proud to be a member. With all the propaganda and misinformation on the internet and irl Shroomery is a light in the darkness. Along with MAPS, Erowid, Dance Safe, and a handful of other resources. We all need to educate ourselves as much as we possibly can about the mind altering substances we ingest.

not against education... just people that like to know it all and tell everyone else they should as well... i fucking hate acid... it killed a friend of mine... and for you to actually suggest i am against people educating themselves is outlandish and off topic because you want to troll me rather than help.
