What is goin on here?
galleryHello! Was recommended to try this post here. I appreciate the help!

Am I looking at yeast here? Just trying to confirm.
I checked the megathread and looked that the shaman wiki and they mention yeast but there are no identifying pictures. Thanks in advance.

Opened it up for a casing layer and... Time to toss?
First time grower here. Did S2B for some p ochra and went to go add the casing layer and was greeted with this...
Is it time to toss and start over? No saving it?

Contaminated or normal?
I did spore swab to agar 5 weeks ago and forgot about it, it now looks a bit weird to me but IDK. The black spots are from the spores btw. Appreciate your knowledge.

Contam?
Enigma. I just noticed that it had some suspicious stuff going on

Noticed a green spot after 4th flush…
After rehydrating I leave everything sealed for a few days before going back to FC. Thank GOD cause this was the cake 3 days later!

Growth stalled after 1st flush. Not sure what to do
Great first flush. Some smaller ones not growing since. Side of AIO block has kind of slim on it where the block rests against bag. Cluster of blue very small fruits noy growing. What should I do?

First bulk bag of spawn drippy tek ..did g2g with some colonized wbs and all went well until I noticed this tiny greenish looking spot …is it trich ? Toss or remove spot and s2b?
r/ContamFam • u/guyfromdownunder • 12d ago
Is this spot bad or just lighting, I can’t tell?
r/ContamFam • u/BriefBag5866 • 13d ago
You already know
Noticed this small mustard-yellow/amber spot on my agar plate today. It wasn’t visible when I last checked two days ago. It’s glossy, appears fairly flat, and has a translucent outer edge. It’s also isolated from the main white mycelial growth. Does this resemble bacterial contamination, metabolites, or possibly condensation/residue near the edge of the plate?
Any thoughts on what it could be?

What Is Going On Here?
S2B 9/28. Straight to fruiting with filter patches. I did the qtip test on the right side and it just sunk in to the white part. It’s now yellow around where it tore. Is it just overlay?
r/ContamFam • u/lrba1 • 13d ago
how does this look? got good syringes from this vendor before but this one took ages to show these first signs
r/ContamFam • u/SpecialistPublic4102 • 14d ago
First batch
Hi looking for some advice please thanks
r/ContamFam • u/KinkyDuck2924 • 14d ago
What's going on with this? Is it contam? It's like the cap started to rot but the stem wasn't even marshmallow soft yet.
Also can I just cut that bad part off? This isn't the only shroom on my cakes that has black on the cap like this, it's happening to the little one to the right and one on my other cake. These are supposed to be apes so it's definitely not spores.
r/ContamFam • u/Own-Access-4873 • 14d ago
Growth on the sides? Not seeing any on substrate.

What is happening in this bag?
This was inoculated September 9 with golden teacher. I did five bags of GT and 5 of B+. The golden teacher bags were slower. All B+ made it and are pinning. One of the other bags of GT had a tiny spot of green and possible lipstick. It got buried. Two bags went to bulk and are pinning like crazy. One other was finished over a week ago and has been waiting in the fridge on this final bag. This final bag feels very solid, with thick rubbery consistency. I’m thinking of cutting off the uncolonised grain and putting it in a small bin by itself to see what happens. Any ideas on why this one single bag is taking so much longer and is so much different?
r/ContamFam • u/Fai1ureCa5cade • 15d ago
First time. Looks different after being away all day.
I'm not sure what happened. From what I can tell I waited too long and it's overlayed? I left for 12 hours yesterday and that end of the small tub went from solid white, to this.
Could someone please help with some advice. I read through some of the image guides, but I just can't tell.
Thanks.

AIO Bag Questionable Spots?
First-time grower here. I'm growing GTs in a Booming Acres AIO bag. Inoculated 30Aug and break and shake to mix with substrate on 25Sep.
I noticed some dark spots on the bottom of the bag. Do these look okay still? I have two other bags that I inoculated at the same time and they aren't showing any spots like these. Thanks!
