Birth Early?
    #22197321 - 09/06/15 01:43 PM (8 years, 4 months ago)

Think I should let the other side finish colonizing, or just birth it and scrape the excess substrate from the myc?

If they are pinning before 100% you may have a contamination, one of the major causes of contams in cakes is leaving the foil on while they colonize. The foil traps moisture making the dry Verm layer damp.

There's is for sure some bacteria on the bottom, it refuses to colonize that part. I imagine I should birth it and get it the fuck awake from the bacteria.

OP, take that foil off and see if the mycelium finishes colonizes that portion of substrate, if not, birth it and hope for the best! :goodluck:

I birthed it and scraped the excess substrate off and it looks pretty damn healthy. Dunking at the moment and looking for my jars so I can prep a new substrate to test out my LC
