My BRF cake is turning all fuzzy white and what looks to be green, but maybe blue? This is my second flush, and it is only happening to this cake?

That is a textbook quality photo of Trichoderma.
It is starting to sporulate at the bottom. Danger Will Robinson!
Get it out. Now.
Better luck with you other efforts.

overlay is when your mycelium grows overtop of your casing layer... or the verm you rolled your cakes in
there is a fair chance that the rest of your cakes will contam sine the trich popped spores out already
just keep an eye on it... i also recommend cleaning the room, FC, counter, and fuck it, the whole house with lysol to get the trich away as best u can...

You might be ok. The infection like started in the jar, but keep an eye on your other cakes. (don't let them dry out too much....I have found that this can weaken mycelium)
Overlay is a way that mycelium can grow. It grows kinda on top of itself in such a manner as to leave a surface that will not pin. People used to suggest scratching it with a fork.
Honestly, I have not seen it yet. Maybe someone with more experience will improve this response.
Take care,
JD

Oust is your friend, trich shoots its spores out of little spore cannons at high speeds, they will stick to anything and they are floating through your house right now. One sprayer with vinegar one with peroxide, spray surface with vinegar, wait a few minutes, spray with peroxide and wipe dry, that will even kill the aids virus. Oust the air in the room with the FC, not too much and not too close to the FC. That will lower your spore count and lessen your chances of it returning.

 i've found this to be the absolute best method of getting rid of trich spores! you do not want to mix the 2 ingredients together beforehand, thats why you want 2 separate sprayers. i dont think the order you use them maters though. spray with one, wait, then spray with the other, wait more and then wipe.

    You should wear gloves if you don't want dead skin on your fingers though, because the last time I did this all the skin on the tips of my fingers turned white from the chemical reaction, didn't hurt, just killed the top layer of skin, if the peroxide was 100% instead of .3% it would kill whatever it touched dead, even you. Luckily the US usually sells the .3% peroxide, don't drink it!

Ahh, that's what the white spots on my fingers were a little while back, just dead skin, lol!  Getting wiser by the second.

Yeah the last tubs I cleaned b4 spawning I killed all the skin on my fingertips, I didn't know what it was at first until I spawned another mono 3 days later and my then almost healed fingers turned completely white with dead skin again. Harbor freight has the cheapest gloves, I have used them for years in the automotive industry.

Good stuff.
I do not think that you have to wait between applying the two chemicals though. One, then the other, in either order.
It went around some time back that something about this combination will kill just about everything.

almost.
its when the mycelium that grew over your casing layer dies and dries up. creating a thick leathery mat that water CANNOT penetrate.
and then your substrate dries out and dies and DOES NOT FRUIT.

Bummer, This just happened to one of our cakes, too.
This was last night.

This morning they were picked but as we picked we noticed grey/green mold on the other side of the cake. I wasn't there but my partner cut it off an put it back in the FC. I've got a bad feeling about what he's going to come home to tonight...
