Title: Smell of Wrong?
Post by: g fung on February 01, 2009, 03:14:22 PM
I spawned some fully colonized popcorn to a 80:20 dehydrated poo and coir (and re hydrated and pasteurized). The spawned mix is in full size stainless hotel steam pans. The pans are in garbage bags. It has been a week and there is a strange smell almost like ammonia and the bubbles from a carbonated drink. This is the first time I have used these pans but they are sturdy and relatively cheap on the interwebs. What do you guys think? Has something gone wrong or is this new container just exposing me to a smell that the containers I have used in the past did not boast?
