Attached is a shitty picture of white growth on one cake...It looks like pins but I don't think it is..If I touch this growth, it deflates, as if there's nothing but air in it...

Just doing a bump-dedoda here.
Can white growth be a contam or is it just mycelium?

What help would "bump-dedoda" your post when the thread is so short anyways? And only an hour old? Not that it really matters to me, I was just curious what benefit that would be.

I believe I read somewhere that chances of contams after fully colonization is very little in comparison to non-colonized cakes...Obviously you have to touch the cakes for one reason or another throughout the process, therefore I find your reasoning to be faulty and erroneous...
Thanks for contributing though.

oh! that pic is of a COLONIZED cake?!?!? i seriously couldnt tell from the pic! hahahaha!
fully colonized cakes are contam resistant.
i found this on the contam FAQ
Cobweb mold or Dactylium Mildew (Hypomyces sp.)
A cottony mycelium grows over casing. When it contacts a mushroom, the mycelium soon envelopes the mushroom with a soft mildewy mycelium and causes a soft rot. It is also a parasite of wild mushrooms. Cobweb mold is darker than mycelium... almost grey as compared to white. The difference in color is sometimes hard to tell for somebody that hasn't seen them side by side before. Cobweb has several other indicators... the one that sticks out is the speed of growth. A small patch the size of a dime will spread to cover an entire jar/casing in just a day or two. Cobweb is also very very fine strands, while mycelium tends to be thicker ropes. Cobweb mold is favored by high humidity. Control strategies include lowering humidity and /or increasing air circulation.

I'm not trying to jam on the OP, but I couldn't tell it was a colonized cake either. Now it is deleted so can't expand the image to even get a good look at it...
