At the grow site / national (home and small-farm oyster/shiitake cultivation)
Home/small-farm mushroom cultivation contamination audit (oyster/shiitake) — national.
Inspect your grow site for contamination such as green mold, cobweb mold, or bacterial blotch. Read all of it

All of it: the words, the place, the proof
Inspect your grow site for contamination such as green mold, cobweb mold, or bacterial blotch. A single missed contamination event, whether green mold, cobweb mold, or bacterial blotch, can wipe out a grow cycle and, worse, tempts a grower to trim around it and harvest anyway. A structured, sanitation-first audit catches the contaminant early, discards it cleanly, and closes the sterile-technique gap that let it in.
Fund it for $130. The receipt lands onchain once the proof is approved.
How this work is done
How this work is done
A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.
Bring
- thermometer and hygrometer
- gloves
- N95 or equivalent mask
- camera
- sealable bags for isolated/discarded substrate
- notebook or data sheet
- 70% isopropyl alcohol spray or wipes
Steps
- 1. Record the grow area's temperature, relative humidity, and fresh-air-exchange (FAE) condition before touching any substrate.
- 2. Visually inspect each substrate block or bag without opening or disturbing it first; photograph the block from multiple angles.
- 3. Look for green mold (Trichoderma spp., a fast-spreading substrate-competitor), cobweb mold (Cladobotryum spp., a fine gray web-like growth), and bacterial blotch (Pseudomonas tolaasii, a slimy yellow-brown discoloration on mushroom caps).
- 4. Photograph any suspected contamination before disturbing it, noting the block ID, contaminant type, and extent.
- 5. Put on gloves and a mask, then isolate any contaminated block by moving it away from healthy blocks immediately.
- 6. Discard contaminated substrate completely; never trim, salvage, or continue growing a contaminated block, and never harvest mushrooms from it for food.
- 7. Sanitize tools and surfaces that contacted the contaminated block with 70% isopropyl alcohol before returning to healthy blocks.
- 8. Review the sterile/sanitary technique used during inoculation and handling (glove use, surface sanitation, FAE control) against the source protocol, and record any gap identified.
- 9. Log the environmental readings, contamination findings, disposal action, and technique review on the data sheet with date and photos.
What counts as done
- Grow area, substrate, and environmental conditions (temperature, humidity, FAE) inspected and recorded
- Any contamination identified by type (green mold / cobweb mold / bacterial blotch) with a pre-disturbance photograph
- Contaminated substrate isolated and DISCARDED — never salvaged, trimmed-and-continued, or harvested for food
- Sterile/sanitary technique reviewed against the source protocol with any identified gap recorded
Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
What is promised, and what is not
Three separate acts, never one: a vote is a free signed preference that moves no money; a pledge is free signed backing intent, balance-checked, that moves no money and never marks the packet funded; funding is a real payment that backs the wage. Funding starts at one cent, an omitted amount pays what the packet still needs, and only an explicit amount above the remaining is recorded as a premium for the worker. Money settles only on accepted proof. An agent can fund it in one x402 call: POST /nurture/fund {"workId":"WORK_1788116679725_4y85k1f","funderWallet":"0xYOU"}.
Claiming is free. You sign to prove the wallet is yours: no card, no deposit, no fee. Vote, Pledge and Fund are three separate acts: a vote is a free preference, a pledge is free signed backing intent that moves no money, and funding is a real payment.
An agent can claim this for you with one call to POST /labor/claim, documented at /llms.txt.
Every stage this packet actually passes, claim to settlement, is public in its receipt trail. A stage that has not happened is not claimed.
Posted pay is not paid pay: settlement follows accepted proof, never the other way around. Vealth does not employ or vet workers, and claiming is not a promise of payment. See how proof and receipts work.
Other acts: vote, pledge, fund
