If one has this in it will they all get it?

Mold. Toss it. Next time, don't cut the cake open and release billions of spores that will seek out and ruin the rest of your projects.

Better wash all your clothes and appliances before you move, or you'll carry them with you that way.

Holy shit my friend just told me to come here to post that he found a black mold on his rye jar and here it is. The rye was completly sterilzed and the lid lifted and a wedge of agar tossed in and the mycellium was growing fine at the top but he says when he turned to see the other side of the jar there was a big black blotch in the center of the jar. He hasn't opened it yet as that would seem unsafe and he's very paranoid of dieing from some poisonous mold or something. Does anyone know what it's called/

Most likely Mucor, but it really doesn't matter. It would be foolish to open the jar without PC'ing it or at least dropping into a large pot of boiling water for a couple of hours first.

My friend says he disposed of it outside and tossed it into a bucket of bleach while holding his breath and with gloves on. He described it as coffee grounds and thinks it may be A. Niger

Yea I've had this stuff in my jars as well. I'm kinda pissed because my ecuadorian grow just got contaminated with this stuff even though I used proper technique. I guess I must've fucked up somehow though =\. Just wondering if it is possible to kill this some how. Peroxide made it bubble up but didn't do much to it.

I just used an LC that was fine before...then at all inoculation points this last time using from the same bottle, I got black growing. I must have introduced it on the syringe I am guessing. It was in baby bottles so who knows.

I can say that I used BRF this time for the first time and it happened. Is it more prone to take on this particular substrate?

NEVER open a jar that looks contaminated! :undecided:

Not only do you risk your other jars, you risk YOURSELF. I'm not trying to scare anyone, but there are many molds/fungi that can make you very sick.
