Yellow Mycelium, No Pins (Pics)
    #5441198 - 03/25/06 02:19 PM (17 years, 10 months ago)

OK, I posted earlier about a problem I'm having with yellowing mycelium. Seems like the mycelium on every casing is slowly turning yellow, not sure why...

Here are some pics of the mycelium, and my setup....





Its been about a week and a half to 2 weeks (cant remember exactly) since I birthed most of them, and still no signs of pins! Anyone know why? Why is my mycelium turning yellow, and why no pins?

RH ranges from about 80 to 85%, and temp ranges from 67-70 degrees F. I mist about once a day, until the surface is glistening. I thought the coolmist port was maybe causing to much FAE directly on the casings, so I added a pipe to bend the port to the top of the chamber, but still no change. Please, any input would help, I feel like somehow I'm killing my babies!!!

I had some yellow like that in a recent casing and it ended up turning green, my bet is that there is a contam present, that doesnt look like normal "piss" there.

I don't feel like its a contam, because its on every single casing...

Also, its not like this stuff just appears, its the same patches of mycelium that just slowly turn yellow, like they;re drying out or something...

Number one thing is your RH is to low to induce to pinning and temps even though are only a few degrees lower than optimum make a huge difference in time delays. I agree it's definitely not myc piss (sorry RR :wink: ) And is more likely dying myc or contams. Mist that sucker down real well and raise the RH (90-95%) and temps into the 74-77F. range and give it a few days. GL

Thanks for all the feedback so quickly...

I dont understand why my RH would be so low...I have a coolmist running 24/7 and an ultrasonic that was running for 30 mins every 2 hrs...earlier I even tried running the ultrasonic every 30 mins for 30 mins, but now I'll try running the ultrasonic constantly.

Hopefully this will revive the mycelium...I still don't think its contams, but we'll see.

It really doesn't sound as much as contams as dying myc to me either. If your coolmist has setting run it on low for sure and make sure the greenhouse is sealed up rather well to hold in some of that RH. Again GL

So I jacked the humidity up, roughly 95-98% or so, with the ultrasonic going constantly. In addition, I misted the shit out of them. Do you think the mycelium will recuperate? Have I depleted the moisture out of the substrate and reduced the life/nutrition of the substrate? I know mycelium is pretty tough, so I'm hoping I'll still get a decent yield from this batch...

PS. Are there any adverse effects from having an ultrasonic on constantly?

You still have plenty of nutes and to answer the last question you don't want to saturate the casing so watch and make sure theres no puddling or water running off into the sides of the casing as ultrasonics running constantly can easily flood a casing in no time.

when i had my double case tek one of the wbs to HP went all yellow (about half the tote) so i icolated it and it never did anything after oh 2 months. I don't wish this apon anyone as well and i wish only the best of luck but in my own opinion and i am no expert try to icolate it so it doesn't spread to more cakes, hope your cakes pull through :smile:
