I've had a casing sitting in my fuiting chamber for about 2 weeks with no fruit, althought the last two days the myc was coming up like it was going to fruit. :thumbdown:

Today I notice the Mean Green on it :mad2:. I peeled back the edge of the casing container and it was rampant. I know how it got contaminated. Water dripped on it from my misting system for the FC, I fixed the problem and thought I has escaped this casing getting contaminated.

But just a reminder, and I think I feel in the trap, just because you have cased a fully colonized substrate doesn't mean your clear and clean :confused:. The Myc on this one was about to start pinning, if I hadnt of seen that Green on there or if it stayed below the casing, someone could have had a bad trip. :crazy:

I have in the past shied away from pulling back the sides of a casing to stop side pinning, but I think I will have to start.

Fruits from a casing with green under it would not have given anyone a bad trip, unless that person knew the green was there and was worrying about it all trip. Also, growing myc is a sign of the casing NOT ready to pin. If myc started popping up then it was in vegetative growth, you want fruits to grow. Also, green mold, has white mycelium, very dense and grows quickly.. If you saw no growth for a few weeks, then all of a sudden lots of growth, then a few days later you see green, then you had green mold already.

The green is actually spores, so its like the purple part of a mushroom, you dont see them until late in the whole cycle of the fungi, and just like that, with molds you dont see their colors until its already all over the place, usually. You learn to spot the green before it releases spores from just the white mycelium, and you can keep your house cleaner.

Good luck on future endeavors :smile:
