Shiitake Grain Spawn
    #14610909 - 06/14/11 08:56 AM (12 years, 8 months ago)

My shiitake GS has colonized wonderfully in the plastic bag. But, i did notice some liquid below, perhaps metabolites being extruded.
When i opened the bag, it smelled a little sour, i guess the metabolites.
Can i still use the top part only?

And also, if the GS is colonized thoroughly, does it always have to be hard on the block before breaking apart mostly? Or, is it because of over long time that it got hard?

Metabolites are normal.  Have you smelled shiitake mycelium prior to this?  It has a very distinct scent.

yes,and it smells good. I guess it must be the puddle below the bag, that caused the smell after some time. The top are colonized very well.

Nevertheless, i shall use only the top part for the blocks.
