Hello ladies and gents,
Quick question. I put my cakes in fruiting about 5 days ago and this has seem to start to appear. Just curious on if this is healthy or contamination.

I think its just normal mycelium.
I would suggest you to make SGFC (http://www.mushroomvideos.com/Terrarium-Tek), it gives much better fae than chamber without holes like yours.

I have holes in most of the sides. It was just difficult without a drill bit.

There are many ways to do this, use search function and look how people do it.
And i can tell you that the diffrence is big, fruits will look more healthy because they will recieve much more fae. And theres a certain pattern for holes, i stronly suggest you do something about it.
Well, good luck!

Latest pics. I discarded the 4 smaller ones. They seemed to have a contamination on it and they were green on the inside. Checked the other cakes and the Contam did not spread. Lucky me

That was probably no contamination. The "smaller ones" are called aborts. They bruise very intensely and use to be potent as shit. You should have posted some pics first.

I think he assumed you meant the inside of the mushroom was green, which is common from bruising.
BTW, contaminants don't spread that quickly. If you had 4 cakes with mold appearing at the same time it was because they were contaminated at the same time not that it spread between them.

Well it was two cakes.I cut them in half to check to see if they were contamed or not. I got bad eyesight and i didn't see the green at first. My wife when she looked at them noticed the green and we discarded a total of 4 smaller cakes from the original two. But you are correct. I just wanted to play safer than sorry.

Omega. From my understanding (not much of knowledge), the blue patchy spots you are talking about is what they call bruising. It is the color of main active compound of mushrooms. Take a picture and i can look at it. See if it looks like bruising.

The substrate that once was mostly covered in mycelium now appears Too be covered in blue mold and some areas appear too be very fluffy like cobweb mold. I am curious if i Have been adding too much water? Could that cause contamination
