My first grow!
    #7989156 - 02/06/08 09:06 PM (15 years, 11 months ago)

Well, this was my first attempt at growing. I got home from work to find the tiniest little oysters poking out. Also has a large fuzzy spot I thought might be cobweb so I hit it with some 3%, but it didnt melt. Normal? Anyway, about killed myself running back to grab my camera (sorry for the crap focusing job), I was very excited. The one cake is the only one fruiting because the others were only placed in there tonight. Any pointers?

ya..

i'm not 100% on what oyster mycelium looks like..

but it almost looks like you got a pretty intense case of some cobweb mold there..

but that's just my opinion..

I'd agree.
This is what oyster mycelium looks like.

oooh that's pretty.

well mushroomj, hit those cakes up with a h2o2/water solution spray and see what happens to that fuzzy stuff.

if it recoils in horror and shrinks up/turns grey or black, you've got cobweb mold and probably need to spray em all down and give em more FAE..

i've heard it loves straight verm just like that..

    #7992598 - 02/07/08 04:44 PM (15 years, 11 months ago)

so you sprayed h2o2 directly on the fuzzy stuff and it didn't do anything at all?

hmm.. not what i expected to happen.

i mean i'm gonna have to say it's your world.. maybe take some better pics of that and i can give you a better idea.

it might not be cobweb but i dont know.. signs point to it is..

did you spray it directly and not just mist it?

sprayed with bottle.. it was mist but i hit it pretty aggressively. Well, I shouldn't say no change.. it did make the fuzzy lay down a bit.

The camera I have is terrible, but maybe you can see a little bit. I took the cake out of the tub to try and get a better pic, and, uhoh.. I saw some green. Is there any saving this baby?

if it was me i wouldn't even fuck with it.. if it is a contam, that is.

i would toss it and start over.

i cant really tell anything from your picture.. looks like a big blob to me.. put your camera on the little flower, not the mountains and you can take a more detailed picture.

I went ahead and operated on it. I sterilized a scalpel and cut the top layer off. The green wasn't underneath, so I guess that may be a good sign. After I cut the verm layer off, I hit it again with H2O2. I'll give it 24 hours and see if it comes back. If it does, I guess I'll trash it.

Um, yeah. The "operation didn't go so well..lol. I through the cake out, as well as 4 others that came down with the same stuff. Only 2 remain, but they're lookin pretty good.
