Casings turing green

#623801 - 05/01/02 04:45 AM (21 years, 6 months ago)

I have a casing turning green on me. It's the second time this has happened to me and I have no idea what I'm doing wrong.

Both casings were 3 Eq 1/2 pints crumbled in a foil tray with saran wrap on the inside, sprayed lightly with 10% peroxide/water, cased with coco coir that was hydrated with boiling water in a covered container.
I cased them using the oven TEK and I was clean to the point of being anal.

Both casings started to fruit with many pins and a few full shrooms then the green started to creep all over the casing layer.

I threw them both out but I wanted to find out what the problem was before I wasted another casing.

My B+ casings are doing fine and they were done the exact same way.

Any help would be appreciated

maybe the casing was too wet.

if the Coco Coir is too wet.....the green will come.

Yep, just threw out my first casing from the green. At first I was like, COOL i got a lot of mycelium growing , then im like....wait, thats not MYCELIUM...NOOooooo :frown:

ANdi threw it out. It was just too bright for mycelium...also was matted, I knew I just had to get rid of it asap.

It was straight coir, and I misted way too much after the first flush, and got it wet. Nothign grew until that shti came :frown:
