Mushrooms growing the the dunking chamber.

So, I know it was a huge mistake and I'm kicking myself in the ass for it a bit, but I forgot to clean out the container I used for dunking my cakes and didn't notice until my first flush was over. When I opened it up, I found a dozen or more little pins growing on top of the water. I'm guessing they were pins or chunks of mycilium that fell off during the dunk, but I have no idea what they are using for food and I have never heard of this happening. Any insight would be greatly appreciated!


Also, I just have to say, I'm fairly new to this (second grow) but I'm hooked, the whole process is fascinating and beautiful.

thats totally a bob ross ref:)
(painter right?)
wish i could zoom in on pic
are the pins under water?
if so what happen is the myc grew in the water(must have some nutes in it) then floccates together, then floats to surface, grows somemore, then made little rafts on top that stay afloat.
it happens with LC to if left.
then the evap cycle of the water surface and then condesing on tub lid and wall made idea conditions for pin formation.
the knots grew and pins get bigger, sink a little, absorb water and got to heavy to float and sink to the bottom of the tub!
my best guess.
still want to zoom in lol to see

if it was that then imagine if he had a sponge floating instead to keep them afloat lol

So... Not to break up the Bob Ross love fest (I do agree, the man was awesome) BUT, you guys have me curious so I've decided to give these a go with an Agar sample.
I did however have to dunk my current cakes and decided against starting a collection of pots, so I transplanted a few chunks of mycelium hat had healthy pins in them over to a small tupperware container with the lid laying on it (rather than sealed completely) should that hold viable samples over for a few days until my Agar kit comes in? I'm guessing yes, but any insight is welcome as always.
