I need help. Is this micelium OK?
    #11739323 - 12/29/09 07:23 PM (15 years, 22 days ago)

Hello, I'm new to mushroom cultivation and I need what's happening to my mycelium.



In the attached images I circled the problematic zones.
In blue there is a zone where the cake is not touching the glass, as a contrast I circled a zone in red where it is. The part circled in blue has brown spots. In the image they look darker than they really are. I don't know if it's contamination or its just drying up and dying. What is it? do I need to hydrate it?

the green circle contains green spots. They look darker than they really are. is that contamination

finally the pink circle is a shadow from the glass.

any advice?

here are some extra images. sorry for the quality.

Blue circle looks like verm pushed against the glass, normal.

Some of those other spots look iffy.  May be metabolites but may be bacterial contam.  You will hopefully know when you birth it by the smell.

It might be just verm, but it's not pressed against the glass, it's separated from it. I don't know why it separated.

Because mycellial growth constricts the cake. It's normal for it to pull away from the sides.  Off color areas look like metabollites.
