Purple Spots on my first grow attempt:( PICS!!
    #8102127 - 03/04/08 04:37 PM (16 years, 27 days ago)

Hey everybody! Long time lurker, first time poster.

Here are some pics of my first attempt at mushroom cultivation using the pf tek. I started out with 6 jars but only 2 made it out alive(one B+ and one EQ). Now those two appear to be battling some purple and green spots.

Here they are!


This cake did the best


Except for these purple spots:(


Heres cake #2


Cake#2 Side View


Im pretty much stoked anything grew at all on my first attempt and I feel more confident trying again. But should I toss these? Can I eat the cap even though theres purple on the stem? Would scraping the gunk off the cakes, dunking, and trying for flush#2 be worth trying. Any thoughts or ideas at all would be great as I dont deny the fact I'm a total newb! Thanx a million in advance!!!

looks like mold do the qtip test and h2o2 see what happens
Edit: almost for got the purple "mold" are spores no worrys for that one but mold spores suck ass and will eventually contam your other cake, its all a mater of time recommend chucking them out into some compost outside in the sun

cake 1 is fine.. those are just spores dropping.. you need to pick your fruits.

cake 2 looks questionable.. does not look like bruising.. i would say throw it out because it looks like trich to me.

maybe you should wait for a second opinion though..
