Hello!
I have a growing Box which sadly got a little contaminated. I know: now it's over, but the thing is that I already have some nice mushrooms harvested. The problem with the first was that after they were completely dry and I put them into a zipper bag, they started to get moldy :S
Either there was moisture left or they were simply not moldy itself when I harvested them, but they already had spores of the mold sticking on them.
So the second one I harvested were just shortly washed in Isopropylalcohol ( / Isopropanol) for like 5 Seconds. I guess this won't have washed anything active out of the mushrooms, as it is also evaporating very quickly afterwards, but MAAYYYBE it has killed mold spores, if they were even sticking on them.
The thing is just now:
The Mushrooms got reaallly black, it's a little bit like the dark bluish colour which you have on them anyways, but now on the complete mushroom.
I'm not afraid that anything is now bad with those shroomies and I think if they don't get moldy I may try one of those, but I just want to ask if anyone has an idea on what happened.
THXXX !
