Moldy shrooms?
    #22191320 - 09/05/15 03:06 AM (8 years, 4 months ago)

Hi,

I'm a noob, but have been having a good time with my first batch.  Earlier today I noticed a blue-green patch on one of my cakes.  I thought it might be a bruised mycelium, so I left it to see if it grows.  The blue-green patch didn't, but it appears on the base of a neighboring shroom.  Is this mold or normal?  Do I have to worry about it and throw out the cake?  I tried the peroxide-cotton swab test and it didn't come off of the cake unless I pressed very hard.  Light swabbing did nothing.  I tried swabbing the base of the shroom, too, and nothing came off.  This is my first flush and I dunked them before fruiting.  Please advise!  Thanks to all.

Here are some other pics.  One is of a blackish "abort" that I found and the other is of a mushroom that split after drying for an hour in a food dehydrator.  Some green can be seen in the pic where I used a flash.  Again, thanks for any feedback, I don't want to waste these gems!

Awesome, thanks, that was what I was hoping for.  It occurred after the fruiting took off, but I was still worried.

Peace!

Im not sure if your cakes are getting enough FAE.
Hence the bruising on the cake, and the number of aborts.

Fae fresh air exchange.  I think this means you need to move air into your chamber more than what you have been doing.  I am a noob but they have severral post on how to do this.

Cool. I'll read them. I'm growing them in a closet, so that makes a lot of sense.
