but then.... i had some green mold looking stuff growing on it



so i went outside with the container so ... took a fork and took out contaminate and more... and wiped the area with alcohol... so it wouldn't spread.. hopefully that kill it all.. it's been a few days.. looks good... but who knows.... did i do the right thing?

you did ok but thats an awful lot of green to eradicate... chances are its going to be back :frown:  green starts off looking white, and turns green when it produces its spores... it kind of blends in with the healthy mycelium until its too late - so there's a chance there's already a lot more that just hasn't turned green yet unfortunately.

in the future, you can sprinkle some baking soda on the effected area after you've scooped green out... that can be effective at keeping it from coming back.

green mold = green death!~

almost always when you get green mold the whole casing will go bad...
most can't be saved.

I think I've only seen a few make it after getting the dreaded green death!~

NO!!! lol.. damn i have bad luck with casing.. .

well i cut ALOT extra off the casing.. so hopefully no chance of contaminating the healthy parts... that's why i cut so much off... it really wasn't that much.. calcium carbonate huh.. i'll try that next time.. hopefully i'll have a successful grow.. cross ur fingers for me.. still consider my self a noob....

so far.. it's been like 2-3 days.. no green

Once it's green, it has sporalated.

You may have cut off the visible green.

You cannot remove the spores spread all over it.

Those will germinate, and more green will appear.

You will keep cutting the green away, until no substrate is left.

You can continue cutting away contaminates, if you wish.

I would NOT.

Save yourself time, Start over.

That thing should have been tossed out. Now you need to spend days cleaning your house, scrubbing the walls, shampooing the carpet, remove the curtains and send them to the cleaners, etc. One should never try to save a contaminated project unless it's a one-time deal and he never plans to do a future grow.
