BRF spawned to coir/verm appears to have stalled?

well, I took a cheese grater to 2 of my half-pint BRF cakes and spawned them to a quart of verm coir/verm about a week ago (1:2). it looked like they were making some slow progress the first couple of days, but since then have completely stopped, and the surface is still almost entirely uncolonized. any ideas...? I have them in a tupperware-like thing that has a very, very tight fitting lid. could they not be getting enough gas exchange?

ditch the lid and put some foil on there loosely with gaps for gas exchange

could be GE, but most likely contams are present. unfortunately you're most likely going to have to start over

Good point, do they smell OK?
If so and they don't move forward in another week I would throw them in the SFGC anyway and wait......if they stink pitch em and start over. I had a couple similar ones (5x5 tupperware about 2" deep) that still gave me fruits when I threw them in a mono bucket with poly and ignored them a couple weeks. I was pretty rough on them, just dropped one in there and broke the other one in half so they both fit........myc is amazing stuff!

agreed. but it smells a lil wack... although to be honest I'm still getting used to the smell of coir in general... probably give it a day or two and then toss it. unless that's gonna spread contaminates everywhere? nothing visibly contaminated.
