Help!!!!! (Up Date/W Pics)
    #7682447 - 11/26/07 04:14 PM (16 years, 2 months ago)

I was looking at some of my colonizing grain today and noticed that in a couple jars the grain has white polka dots all over the grain.
I'll jet some pics up soon.

Any idea's of what this is?

Mycelium?

Did you shake the grain?

If they are small white dots that, instead of growing larger they spread its a contaminant.

They are very small white dots and they don't look like there spreading but the Mycelium is growing over it just fine.

often my rye does that and still seems to colonize fine. I wonder if its a starch or something that leaches from the grain?

The tiny dots are mold. I forget the name right now, but it's a contaminant.

Ive been getting that lately also. I toss em, but they will colonize and the mycelium usually just over comes that mold pretty easily. I dont dare to spawn it, thats just me though.
