Yeah. I’m in the middle of trying to eliminate the variables one by one. I’d like to get to a root cause so I know where the real issue lies.

So far I’ve dumped tubs. Made new grain. Poured new plates. Did transfers from good plates. Discarded bad plates.

Next step is to empty my room piece by piece, hepa vacuum, and run my ozone generator.

No I mean there is a hole in your process that's letting the contam in. Your room has it because everything has it. It's in negligible quantities everywhere basically. So it's a fool's errand to try and completely sanitize your work area unless you live in a pressurized clean room.

What you need to do is find the hole in your methods

Filter failure, unhealthy culture, and poor technique are usually to blame

Im just going to go straight to poor technique most likely in the SAB. I’m not going to delude myself on that one.

All of my plates are clean after I pour them and wait a week.

Most of my plates are clean after I inoculate. The ones that are contaminated have been - 1 clearly bad syringe and the others were clean on some and bad on others. So points to sab.

Shaky hands are part of the problem but until I can afford an Optimus robot and it can do sab work for me I’m going to have to figure a way to make it work.

Most likely it’s the alcohol flame I’ve used for sterilization. I need to buy an induction unit.

Hang in there dude.  I went through almost six and a half months of failure like that.

For me tho it must've been hot temps and season change.

Cause nothing I did worked.

I looked over everything.  Really the only thing I ended up changing was switching to real sfds.  But even still, I had no luck.  Then randomly  As the season started changing. I finally started growing shrooms Again.  My streak is officially over. 

So dont give up.  Hopefully you can get it figured out and nail down the Cause.




Edit.  All my problems always happened after I spawned to bulk though. My plates and Grain and everything were always extremely clean. Or at least it appeared to be. :shrug: It was pretty baffling

I got a bunch of samples from lovely Shroomery folks and something about the dry air here in the desert said 'fuck you' to every attempt I made to grow anything. I've had jars sitting in my warmer/moister bathroom for like 6 months with no movement, I just don't have it in me to throw them out and admit failure... Never had these issues at sea level.

May go back to basics with a PF Tek and see if that'll be something to start from again. Just need more spores. :cuteshit:

using a sab? can we see a pic of the lab? what kinda heat you running?  i notice a a steep increase in people sab issues once the furnace starts up for the winter.

radiant heat i think can almost be worse.

Man it feels like Tuesday.

Sorry if I rubbed anyone the wrong way recently (Pig), that was by no means my intention.

I confess I have come a loooong way from being a very short-tempered and aggressive person. But yesterday I was about to have a full meltdown in qq-qa. Holy demonjizz.
