so i did a cold dunk with h2o2 and all my cakes have done really good(onto 3rd flush) but i look in the terrarium today and one of my cakes has a side covered in trich!! the others are ok, but why that one? i know that once mycelium has a good network it can fight off the mold itself sometimes, but i dunked it good with that solution(water/h2o2) and no thers are doing it. what could cause this? thanks kids

its not bruising, that is blue. all of them have done that. it is without a doubt mold, definitely mold. it is green and took up about 1/4 of a cake. wasn't there the day before, quick shit! so anyway, i cut off the unaffected parts and put them in a sterilized brf/verm/peatmoss mixture. in hopes that it will take off and colonize safely in there.i used h2o2 in a spray bottle to moisten everything good. we'll see in a couple days if it takes off. but still, why did it mold?

Green molds represent more than one specie. The most common green mold is trich but there are many others having a similar color.
This diversity means they have different ways to attack, grow and reproduce, some are quicker and stronger than others.
It could also have to do with the recovery time the cake has to go after a dunk, maybe an opportunistic infection.
