I sometimes have a contam that makes the mycelium to piss all over the bag, soaking in a brownish collor liquid. It's bacteria, right? Does that contam spread wild?
The myco piss Is a bi-product of consuming the substrate. If it is yellowish then it’s normal. If it starts to turn dark brown or black then it does in fact have bacteria. Shorter colonization periods, and colder temperatures will help prevent that from happening as long as your sterile technique in the lab is good.
@@ale.ktheo.g4394 I don’t always top fruit. Only when the pinset forms on the top during colonization. It’s better to cut the bag open where the mushrooms are already starting to form rather than cut it open with no pinset. Now if I put the bags in a day or 2 earlier when there is no pinset forming on top then I will side fruit them all.
If you have a filtered intake running while your exhaust air is being evacuated then no. That’s the way I have mine set up. The fans are in sync, turning on and off at the same time creating neither negative nor positive but if you have to choose 1 or the other then I would choose negative. You don’t want spores and co2 in your house or facility.
@@boostedorganicsthere has to be a net negative pressure drawing exhaust or the closed system would be stable air at neutral or back to intake at positive net pressure. You are simulating a “closed system” with controlled open system pressure differential in order to have clean air blowing out the top like a flow hood and actually working like a flow hood. Great vids, keep up the good work.
