brown "veins" on cake
    #9004841 - 09/29/08 08:10 PM (15 years, 5 months ago)

These mini-cakes are the result of possible contam in a full cake and I took out 4 chunks and put them in these small disposable containers. I had no hopes for any of these, but they seem to have colonized nicely with no signs of contam even after less than steril transfer process.

Anyway, they all have a brown vein-like things going on. They're not raised and don't seem to be anything detrimental, but I figured I'd get opinions. I dunked these, but not rolled because I had no more verm and my usually hook ups were out this time of year...

Sorry for the crappy close up - think I took the pic too close.

Overview of 4 mini cakes:

Also - does that look like a hyphal knots coming out there in the bottom right? They've been in FC for 4 days.

The brown 'lines' are metabolites secreted at the point where the mushroom mycelium meets up with competitor fungi.  Those are contaminated.  Toss out, or bury them outside in a manure or coir, straw, etc., pile.
