Jar contam?
    #7921529 - 01/23/08 08:09 PM (16 years, 9 days ago)

So I inoculated 6 BRF jars a week ago, 3 out of 6 jars started smelling like garbage. I assumed this was a clear contamination of bacterial bloom. I have since threw out 3 of the jars with the smell.

The next day, the 3 jars left are all smelling of garbage too. I decide I'll wait on these ones, remove from my shitty incubator and expect the worst.

This morning, I wake up to see mycelial growth in two of the jars, and the smell suddenly vanished. This evening I can see it spread fairly quickly and no other visual signs of growth.

Has anyone encountered this, or have any possible info at what it could be?

Do you have any pictures? That growth you see might be mold but hard to say without photos. They shouldn't smell however.

I'm afraid I can't find the wire that connects the pc to my phone.

But I did find that two of the 3 jars left took hold of some serious nasties, I saw the clear mold growth, inside had a huge network of wispy
cotton-like structures.

The one jar left is showing real mycelium at inoculation points, it's growing at a rather slow rate compared to the mold/bacteria found in the other jars. The contam took about a whole 24 hours to colonize half of the substrate in one jar.

I'll see what I can do for pics later.

What's this then?

The one jar left has lost it's nasty smell, and turned into a sweet, earthy smell. It is nearing 50% colonization with strong mycelial growth with nice rhizomorphic strands.
