Specs of mycelium in my jars :)
    #5727706 - 06/08/06 05:42 PM (17 years, 7 months ago)

k SO 5 days in and i can see specs of mycelium in my jars (brf w/verm) In my home built incubator, Things are looking good, a few questions though. First ive noticed ONE of my jars is contaminated :frown: its got a green blotch so i plan on trashing it, but will it hurt to leave it with my other jars to continue to incubate?? I just want to see exactly what happens and what a fully colonized contaminated jar looks like. Second a lot of my jars seem to have spots of what looks like brown-ness? lol Its not a mold of any kind maybe too much water in the jars? I want to say it looks kinda like a soggy brown-ness but im not sure. IF thats what it is do you think it will dissapear once the mycelium becomes a little more developed? Dig cam is gone for a few more days but if needed i can post pics later. Thanks for all the information!

Get the green jar out of there. Why risk further contamination. A fully covered contaminated jar looks just like you would imagine it. Don't worry, you'll have many more opportunities to see that firsthand if you continue this hobby. :wink: The brown, if a contam, is probably bacteria (wetspot, etc). Sounds like you left your substrate a little too wet. If it looks like it's spreading, that jar is history. If not, keep your fingers crossed. You might get lucky. :grin:

You don't want to leave that contaminated jar to grow any further. Chuck it and say F'it. if they spread you'll have a major issue on your hands, green mold is a bitch to get rid of.

The brownish mushy looking spots your talking about. I'm thinking your talking about useing to much brown rice flour and to high of a water content can make brf look like a brownish pasty mush. But don't quote me on that since im not 100% positive that is the case. Hope to have helped, take it easy.
