Black dots, Is this pin mold?

I've got this in like a shitload of my jars and its extremely frustrating.


It's those poppy seed like black spheres that are causing me to be a little worried. Sorry for posting this topic again, its just that now i've got some pictures to show what I'm talking about

Looks fine to me man, if it was black mold you would be able to see it sporulate when the jar is shaken.

Do you see the black dots on the glass?
What do you mean you would see it sporulate???
What in the hell would be causing these dots then

Put those jars to the side, if they get any worse, chunk 'em. I don't know why hybrid would tell you black shit growing in a jar is ok.

ugh! OK, if those black dots were not there before, then throw those jars out.
Sporulate is when mold is disturbed and it begins to sporulate/smoke, if you give the jar a light shake and look carefully you will be able to see it.

Looks like coffee grinds or similar. Definitely not Mucor, although from the picture it's hard to give it a clean bill of health. Did you rinse the grains properly before the using? RR

This thread was moved from Mushroom Cultivation.
Reason: this belongs in the contamination forum.

If so it's probably mold.
Sorries.

its weird though, because it seems to not really spread at all.
But perhaps its just because the substrate is densely packed
