wbs jar after 2 weeks Contam? Picture!
    #5484968 - 04/05/06 10:47 PM (17 years, 9 months ago)

about a week ago when this jar started colonizing i noticed a sweet smell indicative of contamination. i decided to keep it to see what happened. the mycelium seems to be spreading well except the lower third of the jar is still uncolonized. plus the entire inner surface of the jar is covered with what seems like spit...areas of thick fluid, mostly uncolored, that has little air bubbles trapped inside. Now when I take a sniff i can hardly make out that smell from last week...now when i shake it i can smell mushies over the contams....can the contams die out eventually?




on a side note...any advice on improving thumbnail quality? I have a 2.2 megapix camera which is a few years old and a brand new logitech webcam.

You definitely have contams. The same thing happened to someone else's WBS jars, everything is going good, it stalls, things get funky. Throw it out, clean your incubator or wherever else those jars are, and try and sterilize those grains more. Maybe a little longer in the PC, maybe soaking, maybe not simmering too much? Work it out!!!

PS: Once there's a contam in your spawn, it's better to throw it out and start again. If you had a cake maybe something could be worked out.

That's wet spot. It's caused by too much moisture. You need to let it drain better before putting it in the jars. You can also just add like 10% verm so there isn't any standing water.
