ARGGG! 20 jars - CONTAMINATED! Growing from Contaminated Jars
#8937804 - 09/16/08 06:15 AM (15 years, 6 months ago) |

Okay. I was pissed before cause I grew 30 jars and every single syringe wasn't viable (a year not used).
So, I get a new order of syringes and at least this time the jars are 90% colonized. I realize it's not colonizing anymore because there is trich mold. Fuck it. Going to birth them anyway.
Now is this right way? I'm going to birth these bad boys in the bathroom, in a trash bag (so spores aren't free in the air). Take a sharp knife cut off like 2 cm into good mycelium on all cakes (to make sure all mold spores are off). Rinse each one off. dunk all the cakes in one tub for 24 hours(cause I can't dunk each one separately). Rinse them all off, roll dry verm, and fruit like normal.
Sounds like a plan? Anyone else grow from contaminated cakes and had good to great flushes?

i would just call it a loss. mold can stick on anything, could hurt your other grows eventually.

Maybe a new hobby is in order. Ever think of collecting stamps?
For real though, cut your losses and try again paying more attention to sterile procedures next time.

I said fuckit once when I got trick/green mold on a tray I had. When I ate the mushies I tripped my balls off and couldn't stop shiting with very sharp pains in my stomach because I was tripping I thought I was fuckin dying they will give you all of the above and could possible kill you. I never did it again. Stop using a bathroom they are one of the nastiest places in your house.

get to the source of your contams. trich spores are sitcky, the will stick all over you, your work surfaces all over the place.
a contaminated substrate is a gonner, you cant cut it away as its probably right thrugh your substrate.
Build yourself a gllove box. and make sure you flame your needle red hot and wipe jar lids with alcohol before inoculating. i bet your contamination rate seriously drops doing that

The bathroom was used in the same method a friend used. All she did was clean the entire bathroom and remove all the loose objects from the bathroom and then disinfect. Now she knows the bathroom isn't such a great area to inoculate. Good thing she used a glove box as well.
How were your sterile techniques preformed Pftek?

True proper storage will extend the life of the spores, however they will eventually expire, Period. Its been shown that after something like 5 years, iirc, 60% of the spores will not germinate.

Trich isn't a dangerous mold. If they could fruit and no mold is visible on the actual mushie it should be fine. But how did you go about growing it?
The reason for not growing is because to not wreck future growths. But I don't care about that for now. I'll reclean my whole environment after this growth.

Cause my grow area is easy cleaning. it's a small area that I plan to clean thoroughly whether I go with this project or not. So, I figure let's do it.
I just need to figure out if this is the best method to going about this. Or perhaps i should case it.

This is bullshit....it was all in your head that the shitting was related to the moldy sustrate. You can eat fruits that don't have mold on them that were grown on a contamed substrate. sharp pains and stomach discomfort are common when taking mushrooms for TONS of people, I can think of more than 5 times I've had a runny shit or thrown up after consuming a large amount of fresh mushrooms. It fucking happens.

bastards.
seriously, though any suggestions on the growth? I'm fruiting some but they don't seem to be fruiting. I dunked and rolled. And after a few days I poured H202 on them. Hopefully that really didn't mess with them. I thought it was cobwebs but the mycelium was apparently just growing on the new verm layer. Not sure if that was suppose to happen.

pinning can take anywhere between 3 days to 2 weeks.

I keep my house clean. I've never used any room other than my bathroom for all of my sterile work. A year or so now that I've been growing and not a single contam yet.
It's just so easy to ensure that there's no air movement inside of my bathroom, id be a fool to use anywhere else.

You really dont want to birth contaminated substrates even if you intend on cleaning everything. But do you know how much work it would actually take to clean a room thats been exposed to millions of spores.
trich spores are sticky, they will stick to everything. You your cloaths hair. carpets walls.

Which is why you (1) always dump those suckers outside and (2) place yourself upwind.
