This is all I know...I DESPISE cobweb mold! Fucking shit is a pain in my ass! It does grow in jars...a few of mine at least..and I sterilize using a pc for 90 min. usually (always in my case) occurs when there is too much moisture in the jar and/or temp too high! It grows very fast. Did I mention I hate the shit! Oh,yeah it can be killed according to RR by spraying it with peroxide 3%, which is the typical strength sold in reg grocery stores as an antiseptic. Im not so sure about jars, finally got 1 damn quart jar perfect. Then put in substrate of cow poo/straw covered with wax paper and lid. Im thinking this caused 1 or both of the aforementioned "cobweb" playgrounds. Now I am spraying it every 12 hrs with the peroxide (after taking off the lid and wax paper)and have a fan blowing in that general direction. I refuse to lose my only 'baby' if i can help it at all. Thing I am concerned about now is I want it (fuzzy shit)to DIE so I have basically drowned my substrate. Can anyone tell me where to go from here? PLEASE? Should I pasturize more substrate and add some? (maybe on the dry side).

Yes i know this thread is old!!! What happens when every time I ask a question..twice..I'm told to use the search engine..granted I started out asking how to, when it was obvious I hadn't done any research. I have since been eating, drinking, sleeping shrooms! now if I can get it together on how to use this forum correctly maybe I'll get somewhere ...

Why didn't you just make a new thread instead of bumping one from over 10 years ago...?

Bumping an old pisses people off for some reason. Use the search engine for your questions. If you have a hard time adequately finding your answers, then feel free to make a new thread in the appropriate sub-forum. Hope that helps.

Cobweb can be stopped by using a 3% hydrogen peroxide solution. You cover trich with a salt paste and I dont know what you do with baking soda. http://www.shroomery.org/5276/What-are-common-contaminants-of-the-mushroom-culture

When do you use the 3% hydrogen peroxide solution while your making the brf cakes ? Are do u mean if u get it while already fully colonized and fruiting ? Could my cakes could of been saved ?

If you have cobweb in your jars, and I am not 100% certain that you do, you PC or boil them for 90 minutes then dump them out and start over. If you have it on a cake or bulk, then you can use the peroxide.

tokeweed420, invitro cakes can not be saved by any means from mould. The only way you can battle and defeat cobweb is if it shows up on a fully colonized and birthed substrate or cake, and then you treat it with a h2o2 spray.

It's unlikely it's cobweb mold anyways. There are a lot of molds that look similar to that but cobweb is primarily a contaminant of casing layers and is particularly rare in jars, though you might find it on a dry verm layer that got damp.

I think i figured out my problem i forgot to clean the inside of my glove box before i used it ...and i checked afterwards it is dusty ...and all so my moister content was way off in my substrate i basically just guesstimated the ratio ...
