Whats wrong with this mushroom?
    #20569796 - 09/15/14 08:00 AM (10 years, 4 months ago)

I hadn't checked my SGFC. Came home to this funky looking guy. Should I pull it? humidity has stayed consistent but the temperature has jumped back and forth due to sudden cold weather. The off color doesn't look pleasant. Is it just super stressed or has it just gone bad? The others seem to be looking just fine. This is a B+ cake

Looks like your cakes are suffocating...focus on lots of fresh air and not so much on humidity.

Can we get a pic of your setup(fruiting chamber)?

Can I take a wild guess and say your sgfc should not be in a closet?

Absolutely. Just a standard SGFC with about 3" of perlite.  I have been fanning 3+ times a day after misting. There are days where i'm not able to tend to them for 13-15 hours at a time so I placed a hydroton filter w/ air pump to get a little bit more airflow on those days. Ive been told not to even bother yet I figured it would be better than nothing. and ugh.. of course while trying to take some pictures I accidently bumped the tub nd some of the cakes took  tumble, sterilized and picked off perlite, smoothed out the surface and got the cakes back off the perlite. not the way i wanted to start my morning! but oh well. ill see what happens.








I have a few spawn bags nearly ready, going to go with a monotub for those.

With the proper fresh air that mushroom would have been a beast !

Haha right? Live and learn! It is a pretty hefty one. No I didn't burn the cakes. meaning I went and washed up/sterilized my hands and grabbed some gloves to get the perlite off the cakes. I may be a rookie but I'm not that stupid haha. I was pretty upset when it happened but I well, all I can do is keep fanning and hope for the best!

Did you move that SGFC out in an open room yet?
Some fresh air would do them a measure.

FAE seemed to be the factor. After moving the SGFC and upping the fanning I counted 15 new pins. Thanks again for the info, it seemed to really turn the situation around for the better. Although there are a few cakes turning slight blue which looks like its due to the cakes being dry, i'm going to give them a few days to see any progress before I re-dunk them (if no pins show). Although all were dunked/rolled some may have dried out quicker than the others while being in that confined space, im guessing. One of them ill dunk tonight, the one with the weird mushroom I already harvested a first flush from.
