What exactly are those cakes made of?
Do I spy rye?
Edit: And maybe the yellow is from your camera.. can you adjust the auto white balance or something?

a mixture of grains, wheat, quinoa, millet, also some coir there might be a little rye in there, i cased the rest which are doing great (still incubating) exp for one that i already out into the fc. THe black specs are most likely the cior seems as if it only colonizes once you have established myc. Those cakes have been in the fc for at least 10 days
heres a pic of the casing i have in there, went in a little early but very light layer of cior over the top the rest if completly colonzied.

What the heck is that hanging off the lower left hand corner of that casing? Maybe my eyes are fucking with me. It looks like a cobweb. As far as the cakes go: I'm not sure. They look BAD (not good), but iduuno maybe it's just a weird color from all those ingredients.

oh those are air bubbles from the air stone, they are not in the container but in the hydrostone. The do look a little yellow, but usually when my shit got contaimed in the past it was real noticible, to me this doesnt really look to out of the ordinary. I took some more pics with a better white ballance, you still can see a yellow tinge but it looks more like how they do to me. Thanks for your insight

HA! Duh, that damn thing is right there! It does look like a cobweb with dew on it.
Yeah, time is all thats gonna tell ya anything now.
So how long did it take those to colonize? I'm sure you'll get (some kind of) results from the casings, but don't hold your breath on the cakes. Then again.. Never know.

its odd i just moved the cakes like frq suggested and noticed a shit load of more knots popping out the side of the cake in question, will have to keep an eye on it to see if it puffs out like the rest or if the actually start to form pins
