Hello good ppl of Shroomery. Must start by saying thanks for everything you do, all the experience and knowledge shared here is awesome, I hope to learn a lot.
So I followed PF Tek
The mycelium grew great in the jars after inoculation, a little slow according to what I've read but looked good and white to me after a month and a half. It looks like spores are growing outwards towards the glass and grabbing on.
The cakes are taken out and then the cakes are dunked in water for 16hrs
Then transfered them into a Poor Man's Pod . Using a air pump, ground water source with hydroton rocks as the land to sit them on with foil squares for the cakes sit on.
Now they went in the pod on August 26, so it's been about 4 weeks I've only seen one TINY mushroom that I went and picked of fear of losing that one. The white cakes are turning a yellow or orange color, no smell just different looking than the start.
Can you guys take a look and tell me if this looks right? Does this one shroom look ok? I think it looks blue but is that green to?
Sorry for the newb questions but learning a lot and eager to figure out my mistakes to do better next go round.
Thank you for your time

Well first, i would say ditch the pod. Its an outdated tek, and a SGFC would do much better. Oh, and welcome to the shroomery buddy!

yea its fine its jut a little bit of bruising which is normal.
those cakes may come back after a dunk and some fresh air. cubes are pretty resilient so you may get a trip or a fews worth still. make sure you rinse them off after dunk as well.

Dunked them and put back in the space pod....Wish I'd see shrooms pop out... Sad to not see any mushrooms after 3 months of grow but it's a learning experience I guess
