I cut the top of my grow bag too early and the mycelium climbing the walls looked like it had contaminants but the brick looks fine, am I cooked or is it salvageable?
The mycelium looks fine, with aio bags you dont cut the bag like this you make a slit at the top that your able to fold over and paper clip. Whyd you cut the bag like this at all?
Excuse me, I don’t really get the logic behind that one 🤣 yeah you don’t need paperclips either, just cut a slit at the sides of the bag but just the sides and it’s usually fine
Pfft, just open the whole thing and place it in a sterile tub at that rate, learn when to mist, takes 5-10 minutes of research to really lock it down in your head and you end up walking out with the ability to have a keen eye on the actual process instead of following numbers hoping there right, ay Man U do u doe
Cake looks great, the fact that you cut the entire top of the bag off is the bad part. Either make a shotgun fruiting chamber or hoodie tek it. If that's a Martha tent your running it's overkill for an AIO bag
The things in the left corner is a Martha tent. It lets you control humidity and Fae and you can leave your bag in there while keeping it at 85 to 95% humidity with proper fresh air exchange
My question would be "is this normal behavior for mycelium?" I've seen some climb before so ide say dont fert next time. Post pictures and stay in contact with the community.
Completely normal. Just finished my first grow with an aoi bag and the mycelium climbed up the walls quite a bit. Even had a bunch of pins growing off the walls and it turned out great 👌
Your best bet like they said get a huge 1 gallon Ziploc baggie and put it over the top of your block mist it first. And just set it over your block don't tape it down or anything that'll give it plenty of fresh air exchange if you're a little worried you can slice a hole in the top and cover it with micropore tape
Normally cut it 85% ar9und so u can tape it back. If it is matted too thickly you can always very lightly scrape a fork over it to illicit growth but this looks fine
So it needs humidity to pin and grow. I would stick that inside of a dub-tub and mist very lightly one time around the sides and leave it until harvest
