Newbie question. My first attempt. 1 week after inoculation. From the pics I've seen, most start at injection site. I'm assuming it's OK that it started at the bottom? ShroomTek bag. Golden Teachers. Thanks.




Gravity yo. Nothing to worry about



Thanks my man!

Seems to colonize fine even when it's a chunk so I wouldn't worry too much. Good luck.

Is this trichoderma ?
Can I wait some days for the shrooms to finish growing or should I toss instantly ?

You can wait for the mushrooms to mature.

Yes, you should try to put it elsewhere/outside if possible. Or ONLY open it again at harvest, and then open outside.

Has anyone noticed an improvement on fluorescent vs leds? I was using just fluorescents, but then started using my gfs grow tower with white leds. It has coincided with smaller flushes, but it could be a fluke.

Nah sorry people can say it as many times as they want but the fact still stands, we are surrounded by airborne mold.

Either way, do whatever makes you feel better about the situation.

That doesn't mean opening a container with more sporulating fresh mold is a good idea.

Some jars I've emptied (straight into the compost) have literal fumes of trich spores.

And?
Did you suddenly notice an increase in contamination?
Doubt it.

Experience tells me it's not an issue but everyone can do whatever they want.

Doesn't it all basically come down to sterile technique and having clean cultures/spawn, which is also why agar is pushed so much to new cultivators? I for one, am not afraid of trich/contams because as long as my culture and spawn are clean, the myc will typically dominate over any other foreign contams and not even really allow them to thrive after the fact, right? Cheers!

I look at it like this - If you have a cold and I catch it, it isn't the end of the world.  However, that doesn't mean I want you to cough in my face.

Similarly, I'd rather not have my tubs cough up trich all over my other tubs.

I've only had trich in 2 or 3 shoeboxes though, so I don't have a lot of experience with it.

You can have fun with that. I rather not risk 4 lbs grow bags and all that effort for a higher chance of failure. No gloves is risky AF IMO. No sleeves? That's fair, but I prefer to stay on the safe side.

Why do you think gloves make things more sterile?

There are plenty of very successful growers on here who don't use gloves.

I donโ€™t use gloves. Or isopropyl alcohol. :justdontknow:

I used to but have since phased them out.

Anyone ever attempt to sterilize and reuse their substrate from a spent tub?

Like..
Throw it in a bag, break it up, throw the bag in the PC, and rehydrate to field capacity after the PC cycle?

Obviously the heat would kill any left over mycelium, but the coir and left over grains would be essentially re-sterilized and could be colonized again.
Feels like an interesting experiment to reduce waste

There was a thread some years ago I saw that someone here purposely left I think it was 2 super trich'd out tubs open in his grow room next to his other tubs and all the other tubs he had were completely fine and went 2 flushes or more. I'm not saying it's best practice to be leaving moldy tubs everywhere buy I do agree that some people are way to worried about it. I don't worry at all about letting a tub with trich finish maturing
