help withh pics...
    #5634373 - 05/15/06 07:14 PM (17 years, 8 months ago)

Ok so I have a camera now. In the pics, the mold is greyish in spots and then looks like it turns white. In the white spots, the substraite is shrunken away from the glass. It has been about 3 weeks now since I started. It is BR flour and verm. The spores are older but sealed and sterile the whole time. Some jars are PR P Cubes and some are brazilian P Cubes. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yes unfortunately. The green one is obvious. The others show two distinct colors of mycelium, neither of which looks like what you want.

Molds are killed by very low temperatures, so if you sterilized the jars, it points to the inoculation process as the culprit. Either dirty spores, or sloppy inoculations.

could it be because the spores are old? They were still in their steril wrap but traveled from one coast to another. I am very dissapointed!

Not enough air will do that. Then next time you go to inject a jar put a one of those small round bandaids over the injection hole. After a week and a half remove the bandaid so the mycelia can begin breathing wile it is taking over the rest of the substrate.

Also don't heat the jars with heating pads or fish tank heaters. Do the inject with a small bandaid and remove thing wile letting them sit in your natural settings. Basicly what this is going to do is "break-the-strain-in" so that when you collect spores for the next time they will grow much more efficiently.
