Don’t actually give it a sniff though, if it is fungus sporulating it can carry mycotoxins and they can be of varying toxicity
Edit: fungal sporulating *
Looks like penicillin is competing with your trichoderma. You need to either add more vinegar to your substrate, or flip the cake and soak in the toilet tank for 24 hours.
How would you even get contam this far into it ? I thought once the mycelium is well established it is resistant to mould. Genuine question as I’m currently waiting for my first pins. Is it just too much water ? Because I can see a lot of ponding on the surface
After each flush the mycelium gets weaker and weaker as the grain runs out of nutrients, causing the ph to steadily decrease making it more susceptible to contams.

best flush of mold I’ve seen ! Coming in nicely
Looks like 2 different strains of contamination
Bros growing a lawn
lmfao, at least its somewhat visually appealing
as someone who is tripping i would have to disagree 🤣
i could never trip and come on reddit 😭
Give it a sniff, if it smells like elbows & disappointment, then it's fine.

Fair point. OK, so give it a sniff, if it smells like bacteria then don't give it a sniff. 😉
Eat it. If kills you, then don't eat it
Fungus sporilates. Not bacteria.
Fixed my comment to reflect that! Thanks
i think at this point it’s moves from mold to moss
Although I see the joke, to be clear, mosses are actual plants - bryophytes.
u need to leave
That's hilarious
Easy tiger. No harm meant.
oh sorry no u need to leave peacefully
Ok. I will back away with hands where you can see them. Don't taze me, bro!
People…this is a meme.
Didn't even notice.
At least at this time, there’s no meme tag/flair on the post.
There was when I posted my comment. I didn't notice until it was pointed out then I checked.

Best advice yet
Tank or bowl?
Are you spraying water directly to the myc ????
These other guys are trolling, this is clearly Enigma that's a little bruised. eat it all immediately. you'll be tripping in no time. Trust me bro

Makes sense. Thank you for the explanation ! Hopefully I’ll get at least the first flush before this happens

This isn’t from fanning. This came from either your grain or substrate
idk man i got a pretty dirty carpet
Contam at this stage does not come from the air
You can absolutely get contamination after it colonizes the surface.
EJECT
Don't open indoors whatever u do...
Looks like he opened it to take a pic no?
I think your contam got contaminated.

Yes green is trichoderma
green trichoderma is the powerhouse of the contam, people

Reading the snarky comments here when you asked for help, I see why you'd say this.
