Are PF Cakes Contaminated??
    #12971518 - 07/29/10 02:04 PM (2 years, 9 months ago)

Alright...this is my first time growing in a few years, so I'm a bit rusty :smile:  Anyhow, I colonized my jars and birthed them about a week or two ago.  Here's the crazy part.

I had to travel so it was a must that I bring along my small fruiting chamber since I just birthed them.  I won't lie, but inside the chamber they were tossed around quite a bit along the ride.  I noticed that a day later, they were extremely bruised and now look like the pics below.

Should I just scrap these and start over??  I can't tell if it's a contam or not...but they don't smell horrible or anything.

Thoughts??

I am looking for land. 5-20 acres for 10-20,000. Can you help? do you know of any land for sale? do you have some for sale? Would you like to help and or be part of this? I want to develop it into a permaculture food forest. Any help would be much appreciated. :pm: :pm: :pm:

I'm not sure why these things won't just grow strong like other pics.  Would that be apparent if the cakes weren't getting enough humidity??

Should I put more holes in my chamber?, more fanning?, more perlite and water?....see pic My apt. stays about 70 all day.

I went ahead and added some more holes all over the FC, put in fresh, drained perlite, rinsed off the cakes, and rolled them in verm.

Hopefully this works...
