Attention!

Hello fellow mushroom lovers. Normally I'd come here to ask questions and/or recieve any and all the growing information necessary for my favorite hobby. Not today...today I've come here simply to state that my second grow, that I began earlier this month, has failed. 
I went to check on my cakes yesterday and I saw the most horrific sight I've seen since my first drunken one-nighter...... GREEN MOLD!!!
*wipes away tear*
OMFG...is it supposed to hurt this bad. I feel like I've just lost a dear friend or a pet or something.  I'm not even sure where I went wrong. Please people...give me the strength to move on and try again. Thank you...with much love.
~Desiree~

are u sure its green mold? on my second grow(which was my last) i noticed my cakes turn a little green. i almost chucked them but then i did some reading, testing and just waited a few days. turned out it was just bruising, most likely brought on from misting on my cakes. so am i to presume u had more than 1 drunkin' 1 nighter....naughty girl

No...it's most definately MOLD. I've had bruised cakes before.

I've had my share of bad girl days. 
I am a single ( hot ) 27 year old.
I have more supplies and more spore syringes. I will grow again... as God as my witness...I will grow again.

Get over girls , and appreciate Women in all their forms.. Real Life, Internet, Fantasy, it's all good.. Then again this is a web forum dedicated to the study of Fungus, you expected? Bond? James Bond?, or perhaps Rico Suave? Course the Aloof Tough Guy approach works.

p.s. There's Footage?

desiree is not 'just a girl', shes a sexy girl who grows and eats mushrooms, there cant be too many girls like that in the world. plus she seems to be a bit of a freak , which brings her over the top far away from being 'just a girl'. as i think more about it she sounds like 'just a guy' except for the sexy part and for the fact that she is after all, a girl.

o pardon me hippie chick, being into shrooms and pink floyd makes u really hot too. but the guys here must far out number the girls, which gives u girls that special edge of uniqueness. someone should do a pole about that.

Years after starting this little hobby of ours I can safely state "IT NEVER GETS ANY EASIER" You always get that crushing defeat feeling when the green shows up.

Yeah, that just makes it even worse. Just when you think you have it under control it shows up and gives ya the finger.

Pre-colonisation = dirty syringe or improper sterilisation
Post colonisation = possibly the above-listed but likely dirty surroundings and/or bad conditions like too much water in jar or too high temperatures.
Birthed = dirty surroundings, possibly any of the above-listed.
Cased = dirty casing/hands/bins/air during casing or maintenance. or casing is kept too wet. generally none of the above-listed.
edit: i'd recommend reading Stamet's GGMM's chapter 7 (IINM) called "Vectors of Contamination". It offers an excellent outline against which you can review your methods.

Sometimes.... it is just the "peeking" bug that gets over on you.
You know you should not "peek", to much.
But, everything is going SO PERFECT.
You are proud of getting to the point, pins are about to form.
Looks like it's going to be the best pin set -- EVER.
You TRY to refraim..... from "peeking".
You FIGHT the impulse to "peek".
The longer you wait, the harder it gets.
You give in to the impulse & "peek".
While you admire your pride & joy.
Out of knowwhere & invisible to you................
An invisible "peeking" bug waifs in, on unfelt currents of air & lands on the casing, without you knowing it.
You close the grow chamber, full of pride.
Not knowing, the die is cast.
The "peeking" bug..... germinates......
The GREEN takes a foothold.
