 Green mold problem

I am new to cultivation, and am trying this site's Wizard method w/ brown rice flour and vermiculite. The sterilization was with boiling water for 30 minutes....etc. Most of my jars however have mycelium growth and green (Mold?) crap in them. Are these throw aways, or once the mycelium grows out will it be able to be planted for fruiting? Thanks for the help.

I'd let them grow. Sometimes the mycelium is stronger than the green shit and it will kill it. Otherwise just toss them because it's a health risk.
Man, if it weren't for that can we found, life around here would be really pathetic.

Toss the buggers. Try boiling for at least an hour. minimum.
You might of also introduced the mold by using un-sterile inocculation procedures.
I can see a world where this is no poverty and no war, I can also see us attacking that world because they would never expect it.

There are specks of green mold on some of a foafs casings they were mostly straw and composted soil haven't seen green until the soil was used I'm guessing it wasn't pasturized long enough. Thought an hour at 175 in oven would be good,but apparently not. There is lots of healthy mycelium all around, the green spots were removed, peroxide 10 % sprayed on some, baking soda sprinkled on others. Is this a waste of time? Will it just be bad or can the green be beat?

Baking soda might help but the green stuff eats peroxide for breakfast. Letting the surface go dry might also help but there is no good cure.

Well, its always heart breaking to just throw away something you put time and effort into so, I too would cut out the green and spray liberally with peroxide. The truth is however, that the molds hyphal network extends far beyond the stuff you can see, so efforts are usually in vain, but there is always the off chance that you can beat the mold. Do what you think is necessary.
