Blueing or Blue mold - P. Cubensis contam help!
    #19233865 - 12/05/13 08:51 PM (10 years, 1 month ago)

Sorry for the monster images, I just want to be sure.

I accidentally left the lid off my fruiting chamber for around 10 hours. When I got home, the temp was down to 64 F and the humidity read 40%. Not good, I know.

I was just about to dunk the cakes to rehydrate them for the second flush when I noticed a lot of blue… something.

Is this blue mold? Or is this from the stress I put on the mushies?

Looks like Bruising to me. Give that a little more misting and you should slowly see it go away.

These cakes just finished the first flush. I was going to dunk them overnight.

Does blue mold have a smell? Would I know it for sure?

Ok 1. Scale those images down abit or your thread will get closed or something.

2. Its dehydration.

3. Fully colonized mycelium is very contam resistant.

Appears to me, that they got dry for an undetermined duration.
It's bruising.

Yeah, the cakes were pretty light (weight). I just rinsed them off with cold water and put them to soak in the fridge for ~20 hours. I'll check tomorrow.

Bump.

Can anyone else take a look at this? I really want more opinions.

I don't think it's mold but I can see you're having a high abort rate. You really need to pick those asap and consider reviewing your temp and Rh.

I was just about done with the first flush (some cakes didn't fruit at all) so I dunked them overnight in the fridge.

They seem to be recouping pretty well. More to follow...
