Cobweb? Or just mycellium?
    #10060132 - 03/28/09 01:50 PM (15 years, 9 months ago)

So I came back from staying at my gf's place last night and looked at my cakes and wow those mushrooms grew over night! However, in addition to that, I think I might have a cobweb outbreak. I have pics but they are blurry and I don't know how much help they'll be. I have checked many other threads, but I just need to be sure.

I'm not sure if it's cobweb because it's white, but on the other hand it's also very thin in parts with almost sharp looking, thin strands poking off the cake. Also, it appears to be growing around some of my really small pins. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

Nice cake!  It is myc, due to a good high rH.  I have always been able to spot cobweb even before it breaks out by its dirty sock, rotten apple like odor.  I do not see anything in those photos that indicates cobweb..it shoots out like fine gray hairs and will get lil black head  on the tip.  The  key to avoiding contams right now is plenty of fresh air exchange...myc  loves fresh air...contams love stagnant, warm, moist air...so keep the FAE up and  good luck..looks like that cakes gonna have lots of mushy babies!

Good advice, and i agree that its not cobweb, even from those pics and that you state its white , its not cobweb.

Often in high humidity you will get fluffy  white growth, usualy on the base of the stems. It freaks some new people out and think they have cobweb because it looks hairy, but its just mycelium reaching into the humid air.

Are those 1/4 pins?? dont really see many people doing quarter pints

Looks like 1/4 pints to me. I like those. they colonize much faster.

Hey everyone thanks very much for all the friendly advice.

That is essentially a 1/4 pint... really what happened is the flippin' cake got stuck in the jar and broke when I tugged it out, leaving me with two 1/4 pints.

Definitely wasn't cobweb haha got my first flush and it was alright. Unfortunately the cake in that last pic produced weird mushies with slimy heads so I chucked it. Others were solid. Thanks again to everyone for your replies!
