I truly appreciate the time you took to assemble something that is a more modern guide and a "one stop shop" for those just starting out. I, like many on here before me, just lost an entire PF cake + coir monotub because of stealth jar contam. I'm really broken up about it and experiencing a sort of paralysis on what to do with the next set of jars that are fully colonized (and solid since it's been weeks) and starting to show signs of pinning. I am almost to afraid to do anything and this guide really put my mind at ease because quite frankly, I have no clue what went wrong the first time and how to prevent it again. I don't want to lose another grow.

I think you've given me a lot more confidence in the direction and asserted that what I've been doing is good, I just probably need to be more attentive to what's happening and just get my cleaning done right.

Appreciate you really laying it out and standing by the right collective guidance to help newbies like myself come along for the journey and really get easily acclimated to the environment. It can be incredibly intimidating and overwhelming and this helps a ton.

One thing I would ask is - what do I do if I let my jars colonize fully to the point where they're hard as a rock, yet easy to birth? I've read on here that I could shred it or simply break it into chunks (which I did on my first grow and subsequent failed attempt). I'm not sure what's best or what'll help grow some killer canopies. Appreciate the advice or guidance here.

Thanks again

They should be easy enough to get out of the jars as they've shrunk a bit. I'll try and break them up as best as I can. I just checked and I got a PE strain ready to pop, but there was a blueish tint around a pin (bruising?) inside the jar and some concerning green (potentially, it was hard to see clearly, let alone snap a pic). I keep my jars inside a container to try to keep humidity higher which could explain the droplets (maybe? Hoping it's not bacterial). Temps spiked this week a bit in the low 80s but normally kept them in the mid-70s.







Thoughts?

Yes, sorry they're all BRF. Just starting so I figured I'd start simply with BRF.

I was thinking shoebox as well to see what would happen and not to contain the other jars that are looking fine. All jars have moisture inside. RH in my tub where I put the jars was at 90% (have a sensor in there as well) so I'm guessing that could also contribute. I will keep the lid open for the next few days and see if it dissipates.

Either way, I'll isolate then; birth, case, and wait.

Phew... hopefully I get something here!
