I'm sorry to hear that, from the sounds of it you may have killed your grow, contamination is a big problem with kits, usualy it because of the lack of information provided... if you have some spores left then look in our FAQ for the PF Tek

yeah it sounds like you grow is dead but its kinda hard to understand what you are trying to say for me. you fruited your bag without it being 100% colonized? if thats the case then your screwed if it had a chance to get contamed.

no.. no.. okay im not doing cakes all it is is a plastic dome with a heat lamp but on the top .. i fill the dome with media then i take a plastic cover with a bio patch filter spray around with lysol take the syringe shake it and heat with lighter.. then lift the plastic just a bit for the syringe to get in and squirt around evenly then put the plastic down and the top secures .. let the temp get up to between 80 to 86 degrees and the mycelium grows

but what happened with me is that with air conditioning being on all the time my temps fluxed from 79 to 84 ... then when i finally solve that problem i noticed yellow stains in the mycelium.. i took a spray bottle with peroxide and water and sprayed the myc twice with a spray bottle .. after that it looked like it melted or shrank .. then i found out its mycelium piss... i was then told that if i scrape the parts that didnt colonize yet it would regenerate

The hazards of buying a kit! They should send better instuctions, fuck how hard would it be to make it complete, six pages? The temps were fine 79-84 is ok, just a day or two longer to colonize. You're biggest mistake was fucking with it. I still haven't birthed shit yet, but I have noticed that if you fuck with it before it's 100% colonized, they get quite upset! Pretty much all you can do now is wait and see. If they don't recover, don't panic. Read as many teks as you can, (it helps give a feel of what mushies like most as well as a thorough understanding of how to do this right!)and THEN buy another syringe and try again. And from now on, be patient, let them colonize by themselves, they've lived in thier own pee for millions of years. Oh, and get some poop, for the love of God!
