Metabolites?
    #9885863 - 02/28/09 05:24 PM (15 years, 1 month ago)

Below are two pictures of a rye bag that was inoculated with PE about 2 months ago.  The Myc growth seemed to be pretty slow at the beginning (as expected) but exploded after I mixed it up.  As you see in the first pic, the bag seems to be on its way with evidence of Myc Metabolites.  My concern is for the bottom of the bag.  As you see in the second picture, there seems to be a high amount of brownish liquid at the bottom of the bag (obviously the lowest part).  The bag is really mushy at the bottom but has no smell other than the organic earthy smell. I've kept the temperature around 74-77 degrees as i know that the bags tend to generate some of there own heat.





So i have two questions:

1.  Is this liquid at the bottom just an abundance of Metabolites?
2.  If so, is there any benefits to draining it out?

I read a post from RR that said the Metabolites have no negative effect on Myc growth, but for some reason, seeing the standing pools of this liquid concerns me.

I appreciate the insight and thank you in advanced.

There's metabolites, but also bacteria contamination and what appears to be black mold.  That thing is trashed.  Toss it out, and don't open it first.  Toss bag and everything into the bin.

That's what I feared.  Some of the rye kernels turned black on the inside, is that what you are referring to as black mold?

Thanks for the input RR.
