Got Sick From My Mushrooms????

I recently completed my first grow of ecuadors in a casing. To my dismay, the casing became contaminated by trichoderma, grrrrrrrr. The casing yielded a good amount of shrooms though, and stupidly, I ate a small amount of partially dried contaminated mushrooms. It was about a level one or two trip, and I experienced no negative effects. A week later, I ate one very very small mushroom picked fresh from the contaminated casing. The next day I woke up feeling nauseous and I went to school and threw up. So I went home and had a full day of vomiting, shitting my guts out, and feeling tired and just "out of it." So my question is, Why did I feel fine the first time I ate a few, and get sick when I ate only 1? I'm guessing it has do with the one that made me sick being fresh out of the contaminated casing? Someone help!

Sounds like it may have been rotten. Most of the time it takes around 12 to 24 hours for food poisoning to set in. So pretty easy way to tell if it was the mushroom was its 12 to 24 hours to when it set in and then another 12 to 24 hours of being very sick.

throw out anything contaminated! Being fresh wasn't the reason you got sick...it was because the mushroom was growing with trichoderma!

If that was true, you'd get sick every time you ate an onion, carrot, potato, peanuts, radish, etc., etc.
Trichoderma is a beneficial organism in the soil, and organic gardeners order cultures of it to put into their soil to increase yields and disease resistance.
Trichoderma is NOT toxic to healthy humans, and is not an intestinal poison when consumed. Please don't spread disinformation on the boards. Thanks. RR
