Contam question
    #7392499 - 09/10/07 04:00 PM (16 years, 6 months ago)

So while checking out my jars i noticed, what appears to be a tiny green spec.... it borders the edge of some r-matic myc. Now im not sure yet if its contam, but if it is, right now its about the size of a pen tip (why i couldnt take a picture) and seeing how the myc looks very healthy (strand is Orissa India) is it possible it will take over the possible contam, if it is contam?

Im going to monitor it closely over the next few days and if it gets worse ill post a picture..

More then likely it is trich. Impossible to say with out a photo. If it is Trich the jar is a goner. Boil or pressure cook it and then take it outside far away from your house and dump it.

Ok, so im going to give it a few days to make sure it is, because its very small, but its in my incubator with the other jars, and all the holes on all the jars are covered with micro pore tape, if it is trich is it a threat to the other jars even if they are all taped and closed?

It is probably fine in there with the other jars but just to be safe move it out of there and put it on a shelf or something. As long as your house is above 75 degrees then you shouldn't even need an incubator.

Damn that is a cold ass house. Then you do need an incubator for sure. As soon as you realize that is Trich though, get it out ASAP

I've heard about a few people getting nasty infections from inhaling spores from contaminated jars, but can't you salvage jars that aren't too bad? I've cut out small spots of trich and washed away black shit, and then cased, with great results, and no signs of contamination.

yeah but its the spreading the infection around your grow area, if all those nasty spores get out, it be damn pain in the ass to have to disinfect everything when ur future grows start getting contaminated.

Plus if u can see the contamn then its more than likely that it has a hold of more substrate ut cant see, so ive been told anyway.
