shrooms around contamination
    #7462483 - 09/27/07 10:48 PM (16 years, 4 months ago)

Ok basically I had some cakes on perilite and they were fruiting out of the perilite but I decided to pick them becuase it looked like all aborts that had been sitting without any growth hardly for about a week. I decided to harvest and noticed that most of the cakes had become a little contaminated some worse than others. My question is most of the mushrooms I pulled looked healthy mostly reg color some black caps but just seemed typical of aborts, and I want to know if there is anyway of knowing if they are still good? As long as no contamination is on the mushrooms. Some had a few patches of brown on them at the base of the stems.

If they're rotten, you'll get food poisoning. Never set cakes on the perlite. Always put something such as a jar lid between the cake and the perlite. If you set the cake on perlite, it will waterlog and rot.

Yes, quite possibly. peroxide degrades in exposure to air and light.

If your mushrooms were not mushy and brown, and didn't smell rotten (sour, garbage smell), then they should be dried and will be okay to eat.
Don't mess around with them if they are rotten.
