vermiculite seal
    #3527794 -

Is it normal for mycelium to grow through the top layer of vermiculite on PF style jars? It might have been mold because the jars were contaminated with cobweb and when i went to dump them there was white all over the top of the vermiculite and the other jars i still have might be doing the same thing, if so is it bad?

Spray a fine mist of h202, just 1 tiny pump (About 95% water, 5% Hydrogen peroxide) on the stuff you think is cobweb when the jar is ready to be opened. h202 wont hurt mycelium but it will kill the contam
