Well shit, it's definitely like trich I think. The thing has turned green and is slowly spreading.
This happened because there was water collected on top of the cake. I remember someone suggested letting that happen, but I would say it's a bad idea. Within a couple days of it resting there, this contam developed in the little bit of water.
The good news is the third cake is really healthily colonized, really thick white myc all over it. I just dunked it for 12 hours and put it back in its fruiting bowl. The two good ones are sitting on top of my PC for some minor warmth, which should hopefully facilitate humidity and FAE.
[EDIT] Wooooo!!! The first non-contammed cake has tiny pins on it.
My 7 healthy PF tek jars should finish colonizing in a week or two, making for a full 8 weeks. Due to some moving issues, probably gonna have to just let 'em wait in the jar until there's a good situation to fruit them in, but shouldn't be a big deal.

So I got a couple good fruits off of one of these cakes, but trouble is brewing now.
On the cake that fruited has a little chunk on the bottom with like 8 pins. They've stayed the same size for weeks now, but only one of them has a remotely dark top. I dunked them as is, but they're STILL not growing. They look healthy and red/brown, but they're not doing anything (opening up, growing, etc). Is this normal? I don't feel like I've heard of this before. They definitely have not aborted the way four other pins on top did.
I have another cake that was REALLY well colonized, really thick myc, and it's been sitting in the FC (which is the tupperware things) for like 2 weeks now with no pins. There's some spots on its surface that are brown, some that are slightly blue, and then others that are fuzzy and moist. There's little knots of myc, but they're not turning into pins or anything.
The way I've been trying to fruit these is that they're in tupperware bowls with a lot of holes for FAE. Then they're resting slightly on top of a computer fan that keeps the temperature warm (I'd say 70 to 80). I put water in the lids of the bowls that evaporates inside from the warmth so that it's humid. This led to a couple fruits growing on one, but now neither of them are doing anything.
Any suggestions?
