Contaminate, or not???

#662068 - 06/04/02 08:59 AM (15 years, 1 month ago)

Ok, so my mycelium seems to be growing at a decent rate. But it does not all look the same. All of it is white, yet some is a little less white, and most of it seems to be "ropy", yet some of it substancually less ropy than in other places. Also, I'm getting condensation on the inside of my jars. Do these things seem normal to you guys? Is everything alright or do you think some may be contaminated?
One more thing; much to my horror yesterday I discovered some mold on a book I was using to weigh my container down into the water of my incubator. Of course I got rid of it as soon as I found it, and it was still on the outside of the inner container, but it made me pretty worried. Are my little babies going to be ok??? God I hope so!
I'm doing this for the first time and I need all the help I can get so any response is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I'd say they're fine. But if you found mold on that book keep a close eye on them and watch for peculiar smells.
