what is this? small biegeish light brown spots on jar?? please help..got pics

[ByrdMan]

these jars are brf.
swim did a grain to grain but instead of just leaving the top layer colonized material, he used a spoon to push/mix the entire jar semi evenly to colonize faster.... basically a g2g that is all mixed up...(hope that makes cents..)

on most of them there are what you see in the attached pics...
small biegish light brown spots.... it dosent apear to be contamination. it almost looks like living tissue but isn't a pin. if anyone knows what this is please let me know... i think they are fine i just wana make sure considering swim has a lot of these going.....

these pics were taken 27 days after the g2g......
due to certain circumstances, will these be fine to birth in an additonal 15 days?

thanks 4 the help guys!

Go ahead an get those in the FC .Looks like Hyphal knots,fruits even Either way they are ready for the Fc .What strain is in those jars?

[kingkc]

I seen those ..they is contams !!!! Cut away and spawn to horse poo.

[eastwood]

looks a bit like sclerota too.What strain are you growing?

[floppypeter]

thats a invitro fruit.

you could scrape the fruit and then put it in a fruit chamber

or crumble and case

it will store for a while but is a potential vector for contams

Your strain is so enthusiastic it cant contain itself

[MLBjammer]

Definitely ready for fruiting if the jars are 100% colonized. It looks good; and you can just fruit in the jar.

[ByrdMan]

they are plantasia mystery.
so they are basicaly the beginings of fruit and can rot/contaminate if left too long????? does this sound right?
when birthing should these things be scraped off or not?

correct

Yes


good luck

thanks 4 the help guys-----theres just 1 more ?

there are around 100 jars just like this.
they cannot be birthed at the present house, swim must wait untill october 2nd to birth....... what the helllll should he do.

he realizes he cant let the jars just sit like that for an additional 13 days.... so he will be forced to make casings.... so if he wanted to make each casing be 5 cakes, couldn't he simply cut away the brown spots (fruit/tissue), and put all 5 cakes in the blender, and then put the grinded down cakes(5) in a plastic baggie, then store in a dark place for the remaining 13 days.....(this would allow for the brown things to be removed and give eneough time for the mycylium to heal and grow together).
this way if swim had 100 jars, he would be left with 20 baggies full of 5 grinded up coloinzed cakes.... then on oct. 2nd, he can spawn all 20 baggies to 20 different casings that will be vermiculite/coco coir........

does this sound possible to ackomplish.....
please give me some reccomendations on how to delay birthing in swims situation to get him to oct. 2nd!!!!!!!!
thanks

You could wait til oct, if kept in a clean environment you may be ok, remove fruits and birth. In essence, what your doing is a invitro first flush.

If i was going to case, I'd make the casings now using (a) low profile stackable tub(s) that i'd be able to put in a box a move to my new spot. This way, when i was in my new digs in oct they would prolly just be getting done colonizing...

Your plan sounds good other than you'll lose some power in the spawn from it recovering and also you risk contams every time you handle it or break it up..

You might be able to put them in the fridge and then bring them back to life after a week or two, it works for LC's, spores etc.

[ByrdMan]

thanks 4 the help FLOPPY ~
i think swim will make the casings on the 23rd.
Then birth 10 days later, which will be the second day at the new crib (oct 2).

[inkawgnyto]

yea, I would just leave them in the jar. It won't do any harm.

I do all my flushes invitro, it's just perfect for my situation.

[ByrdMan]

so if its a 1/2 pint cake, you can do an invirto in a 1/2 jar....?
i always thought you put a 1/2 pint cake into a pint sized jar....?

that would be chronic, you should remove the dry verm layer and turn it over letting the jar sit on its lid, maybe raise it up too allow airflow.

[eatyualive]

thats not a contam. sometimes you will see this happen. it may do nothing, it may turn brown. id cut it off then birth the cake. you may be able to peel it off as well as it won't mature but into a big blob lol...
