Cobweb Mold in PF Jars
    #5418644 - 03/19/06 12:19 PM (17 years, 10 months ago)

I birthed 3 PF cakes a couple days ago, and unfortunately they were decimated by cobweb mold.  At first the cakes showed some fuzzy white growth--which is pretty normal--but they quickly got fuzzier and fuzzier, eventually developing little black dots that resembled spores.  I also lost 6 other jars to the same thing.  I think the syringe may have been the problem, as I noticed the grayish, agressive growth in the unbirthed jars.  I bleach-bombed everything. 
    My main lesson from this was learning to differentiate rhizomorphic growth from mold.  I still have some jars that are doing fine, inoculated by another syringe and put in another part of my house--they are all 75% (or better) colonized and will hopefully be okay.  These jars did occupy the same space as the bad ones for a few days.
    Should I bleach dunk the good cakes when they are birthed, or am I overreacting?
    And I am a newbie.  :thanx:

Not bleach! Dunk in distilled water with a little splash of peroxide.

Yeah, I think my lack of sterility with the syringe led to the cobweb. The other cakes I have birthed I dunked with a little H2O2, and they are fruiting nicely. Thanks again.
