Kill Whitey?

[spacevis]

A few weeks ago I started growing my first shrooms. I inocculated 4 jars, and 2 survived. Lateley, however, one of the two remaining jars, whom I affectionately call Whitey, has begun to grow a mold, although I'm not quite sure. I've put up 2 close-ups of the mold and a poll on my website. I'm adressing al experienced shroom-cultivators here: what should I do? Trash it, or keep it?

Pictures are at the bottom of the page...here

Give it a little more time.
If it really is mold then you will know it soon enough.

Mold spreads swiftly and kills even quicker.
Once you open that jar (assuming it's mold) the entire jar will be green within a day or two.

Mushrooms are smarter than you think /forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif
They'll let you know when things are not right.

Actually shrroms seem to be some kind of alien conscience and entity... with lot more power than we imagine...
