So my first tub ever failed. My second has given me a few grams of fruit but as I inspected it see some contam. Given that I have a little time before my next spawn is prime for that tub I’m going to give it a shower scrub and see what happens. The cake otherwise looks good but dry.

Odds that I get anything? Really nothing to lose and it seems an interesting experiment to me.

Do you soak after every flush?

And should the surface always have droplets of water throughout the whole process? And if it doesn’t, does that mean it needs more water?

Im thinking is just dry and some bruising of the myc.  Coir is darker brown when wet.  Big gaps are from cake shrinking aka drying out.  Needs more water.

I don’t usually get those droplets back after first flush. Yes you need to rehydrate for subsequent flushes. I don’t personally soak every time; sometimes I mist. But yes you need to add water.

Nope. Bad AI. bad.

I’m hydrating coir right now for my next batch cap which I’ll use on some purchased sub, black cow type, I still have. I’ll move to coir full time once the next 2 tubs are done.

I bought a 12 pack of coir and they arrived sealed in sixes. Am I the only one ocd/perfectionist/paranoid to vacuum seal the remaining 5 like this?

In a spawn bag nearly complete is it odd to have a spot with zero growth? Contamination?

I’d be skeptical of contam for sure. There’s a chance that’s just the last place it made its way to.
I’d break and shake that hoe. If it stalls it was contam if it colonizes everything again then it’s good to go

Its definitely bacterial. Id let it ride and just give it a massive top layer instead of spawning it

Theoretically speaking, if you had a clean, fully colonized jar of grain spawn, do you think it would be dangerous to open the jar, sniff contents, replace lid until spawned a couple weeks later?

If we're speaking theoretically I can't imagine it would be harmful. At that point there's nothing left for contam to grow from cause the myc would have it all. But that's just a rookies 2 cents

Is it normal for PDA to separate this much when it cools or did I fail to homogenize it well enough prior to sterilizing it?
