Where am I going wrong? (contam ID)
    #8035155 - 02/17/08 03:38 PM (15 years, 11 months ago)

This is Golden Oyster on PF Tek. I made a honey LC from a spore syringe a few months back, shot up some jars, then when I when I went to birth them I noticed that it wasnt mycellium growing on the cakes. It was a thick white and yellowish colour and smelled like rubber and fish. All the jars were like this so.

So a few weeks ago I made another LC (honey using same syringe) and shot up some more jars. Everything was going fine, I even took one of the cakes out the jar 5 days and gave it a smell, and it smelt good. But now I check today and this exact same contam has come back in all the jars. Anyone expreienced this before? Thanks.

Either you are not properly sterilizing, or your filters are letting contams in your jars post knock up.

You'll get it man, don't worry, it's hard at first.

Is it possible that this contam was in the LC? I mean when the first signs of growth appeared on the jars I took one out ti check the smell and it was fine. Im thinking now my verm barrier was really thin, and the contam got through it?

That's possible, but from what you've described, the pics suck, it's probably a contam, expecially if they have a foul odor. Toss 'em and better luck next time.
