I was thinking it was humidity as I have an electric humidity sensor that shows humidity around 90%, although someone said they are not so accurate at high humidity.
Sounds like you need some holes in there man. could be co2 over dose?

Sounds like potency to me. B+ is hit or miss sometimes.
I recommend watching the RR videos. Mushroomvideos.com . Follow the pf tek.
And order a spore syringe from a Shroomery sponsor.

Prep your rye like this.
He shows how to make lids too.
You can either make a hole just for GE, or make two and cover one with silicone for an injection port.
If you only have one how for GE and still want to inject you can inject and cover the hole with micropore tape, or remove the lid and squirt into the jar.
Hope this helps.

Pretty much. Its cut up filter disks. Some craft type felt stuff works too. Its essentially polyfill thats been ironed flat.
Just standard silicone too. RTV isn't necessary, but of course you can still use it.
If you are going to use tyvek instead, I would silicone a piece to the top and another one at the bottom, making sure that they dont touch. The purpose for this is to make sure they they both dont get wet and wick in contaminates from the out side.

Are you talking about your jar holes or your monotub holes?

As i go to fill up a bowl for pasturization i found decaying rotting wild mushrooms accross the top. Im guessing nutrients is fine it wasnt even a large flush but is the other mycelium going to ruin my project later or that there a deecaying unknown mushroom in there. im a noobie thanks for your time and advidce would be well considered.
Its not idea, but you should still be able to use it. Some of its nutrients have been used, but if thats all ya got use it.
Make sure you pasteurise it properly.
