I just harvested a second flush of golden teachers from this tub. Is this mold, some sort of contamination? Anything that can or should be done?

To me it looks like mycelium recovering from the surface getting disturbed. I could be completely wrong just going from sight. How recently was your harvest.

Thanks! The first harvest was done on the 27th of January. I was plucking the second flush tonight and took that photo as I was doing that.

Would it be good to mix it all up again and then put a casing layer of fresh coco coir on it? Or leave it like it is and add some fresh coco coir?

Just leave it as is completely. Make sure it is hydrated though.

Do not add coir.

That's just how it looks after you've harvested:



The mold you'll likely encounter will turn bright white before turning green when sporulating. Pay attention to any off-color mycelium to get good at catching it. When you encounter green, you want it out of your grow area because you're likely about to see more of it. Don't perform surgery or fuck with it as you're likely to spread trichoderma mycelium fragments and/or the spores.

Here's a shot of green already sporualting:



If you're near harvest or it's just a tiny, tiny patch, the only thing I'd recommend is covering it. I used to save a few of my old plastic petri dishes for this as they let me monitor the spread, but lock the spores in place. Just push it into the sub, covering the spores. Cutting the bottom off of a soda bottle can also work, too. But mainly, you just don't want to disturb the mold, so if the sub is clearly fucked, just pitch it.

Here's an example using the bottle where I was near harvest on the 3rd flush.

It doesn't like great to me, but if it smells good once broken apart, I'd spawn it (but not G2G). How big is the jar?


Thanks, it's 1L.

just starting with agar. is there anything on this plate worth transferring? (If you can see through the condensation) It all looks a little thin and wispy. And slow. That's two weeks growth.

Spore germination can be fast or very slow. They like to do what they wanna do. Some good germination spots on that plate. I’d pull some transfers from a few different ones and go from there.

I have glass petri dishes and i want to use a no pour tek to make agar.

My plan is

1. Mix ingedients in a media bottle
2. Put bottle in microwave to pre-boil
3. Pour in petri dishes
4. Let solidify and put lid on after
5. Wrap in foil and pc for 30 min
6. Let cool in pc
7. Wrap plates

Sounds right or did miss something?

I have a lot of questions but I forget them...
Woodlovers...start them on wood chips(sawdust etc) and I think I read bran. Never really heard of going to grain even though grains have bran(at least wheat). Also heard of starting with PF cakes
I started mine on agar, and on small wood chips with LC, and they seem to bee doing okay, was just wondering.

Also..
The fact that a shoe box does not seal totally and the bacteria cannot travel a weird path and coco being inert are the reasons why it works well? The shoebox...without sanitizing shit. I'm just surprised I haven't had more contact than I have...

Oh, I took some colonized grains and put a few on agar, and all 3 varieties have amazing mycellium, super ropey and rhizo...the PE mycellium looks super weak under the exact same agar...is this because the agar has nutrients and so does the grain? (10g agar, 10g brf in ~500ml H2O)

that sounds about right. i would stack them before wrapping, like that you will get more plates with few or no condensation.

Thanks.

Thinking about it, i wonder if it's even necessary to wrap the dishes after cooking, since the're already wrapped in aluminium foil.

I can store them until i need them wrapped in aluminium foil, can't i?

My Spawn bags that I was saving for G2G started to pin before I had a chance to transfer. Can I just remove the pins and proceed with my G2G or should I let it flush and then transfer?

This is dry alder chips, soaked and strained and PC and cooled and injected.





Looking at it from a distance it doesn't show much probably because the wood is dark but it is full of mycellium...it was shaken a week or so ago.
This is the least colonized.
Anyways, does one need to keep lid on shoebox? For these(cyan)? Wet cardboard?
And you don't need to spray water on coir/grain shoeboxes? Or is there enough water?

Still new to this, I got a decent first flush off the tub but now on the second flush the whole top of the sub is just forming stumps with no caps, it's the first time I've seen this, there's quite a lot of shrooms on the sides.. is this just caused by poor conditions?

According to an earlier post in this thread. After harvest, that is very normal to see.
