slow fruiting = no fruiting + this blueish part
    #23487667 - 07/28/16 10:22 PM (7 years, 6 months ago)

My jars took super long to get completely colonized, all of them looked fine when I took them out for fruiting..

However also this is doing nothing or being really slowly, and today I noticed this blueish part on one cake, is this a contamination, because for me it doesn't look like one, but it is hard to tell. Maybe someone else has a clue, or can I test it somehow?

Well for starters those cakes are sitting on vermiculite. That's supposed to be perlite.

The blue is just bruising and normal when touched or when it's getting dry.

If your not going to make a proper fruiting chamber then I would just keep misting and fanning (fanning isn't as important as misting) when they look dry and make sure they get some window light.:thumbup:

Those look kinda dry BTW. You might wanna dunk them for 12 to 24 hours totally submerged under the water.

Your supposed to dunk for 12-24 hours and roll in dry verm when you birth cakes.

Ok, thank you a lot for your fast reply and the advice.

I will dunk them tonight. One stupid beginner question - there is one cake having two small shrooms growing, I should not dunkt his one right, but wait to harvest this small flush and then dunk?

Thank you man, you helped me a lot!

And one more question as I am not quite sure, should I directly mist the cakes or only the perlite around?

I'm looking for someone to prove me wrong :shrug:. I mean it is a bold statement, and I'd love to see some photographic proof against it. But yeah 99% of the time bruising is from being dry. Like this thread.

Yes lol only every time.  If you bruise the mycelium while handling it it turns blue, in my experience anyway.

Just like the mushrooms do.

:douchewink: yeah it's weird how people have much different experiences than me. Do you have any pics?

I'm looking for people with actual experience and pics. Then I'll change my thread. Nobody's provided anything that's actually just handling bruising while in pristine conditions.

:shrug:
I'm not here to argue with you man

Just sharing what I've seen.

If the mushroom is made of mycelium and bruises blue then why wouldn't the substrates mycelium bruise blue too?

I do have actual experience. It might not be as much as you but I've grown some cakes and monotubs too.

Lol I'm not here to argue :smile:. I'm just asking that when it happens send me a pic. I'm just genuinely interested. I have done a lot of research and can't find anything that doesn't look like it bruised due to conditions or contaminations. I'm sure there's someone who has a different experience, always is really. I'm open to them all as long as it isn't ridiculous lol

I get ya :thumbup:

I didn't mean to come off as passive aggressive or anything haha

Unfortunately I don't have any pics:shrug:

I could be wrong(or maybe my subs were contamed or not in an ideal conditions) but I swear I've seen it happen that way.
