I tried the very same thing and even though those computer fans are small they will dry out a pf cake quick.

Yeah, it seemed a little odd. He advertised it as "a bunch of mushroom growing supplies" which it was, had some peat moss, coco, brf, verm, oyster shells (whatever those are for), lime (again, whatever that's for), tons of jars, bags, syringes.
I live in an extreme hippy area so it didn't seem that odd. I honestly expected a legit shiitake farmer when I got there, but he was totally a stoner and admitted basically right away that he was growing the illegal kind :wink:

  There is all types of legal mushrooms you can grow.... Like oyster mushrooms.  They are called edibles..  Oyster shell and lime are used in bulk grows for I believe ph balance

OK so I hadn't talked much about the P.E.6 because they were taking quite a while to colonize, and the first few to colonize looked like they could have had an infection (all had the same yellow color in various spots around the jar, and I opened 1 to birth it and saw a gross amber-oozing infection I later found to be wet bubble) so I set them all in our utility closet, away from the other jars and the fruiting chamber.

Well today I was putting some things away in the closet and I noticed that the jar that definitely had an infection on top of the verm layer when I opened it also has 2 mushrooms growing up the side of the jar. I opened it outside and washed it off real well, then skipped the dunking and put it straight in the FC.

Question: are these mushrooms safe to eat? There isn't anything growing on the actual mushroom itself, but there was an infection in the jar that seemed to have colonized the whole dry verm layer and at least a little of the cake. Also, should I have dunked it overnight? I was afraid to drown the fruiting cake, or at least ruin my shrooms before I had a chance to eat them. Something tells me that's not how it works, tho.

They say not to eat shrooms of a contaminated cake.. Contaminates can travel through the shroom.

You might wan't to watch that computer fan, with that felt or tyrek around it.  Might burn up that little motor in a jiffy, by drawing a liitle to much current.

Thanks...that's what I thought. Again, I see no discoloration of the cake (except for a little bit of yellow metabolites) and there's nothing growing on it at the moment, so I'll let it do its thing and decide much later if I want to try my luck with one of the shrooms.

I just read in TMC that wet bubble is not toxic, so temptation is pretty high. :wink:
