When in doubt toss it out. It looks nasty to me. Did you dunk and roll those cakes? Are you using a shotgun fruiting chamber?

That looks like a bad bacteria infection slapped onto that cake. You should separate it. With some care you can MAYBE salvage a few shrooms but up to you how worth it that is. You should get that away from the other cakes though

You got the humidity but just make sure the little babes are getting some air too. They need to breathe. The SGFC takes care of this with all the holes.

I got one of those kits from Midwest also. Its on the way as we speak. The reason I got that is cause it comes with literally everything you need and you don't gotta go hunt for every item one by one. I was wondering looking at your kit with the grow chamber if it would be a good idea and tweak it by making one of those shotgun terrariums and just put lil holes for ventilation? Would that be a good idea? I'm about to start my first grow myself. The more I read on here the more I think ill go that route cause it looks like people have good luck with those shotgun terrariums.

I think its pretty agreed upon to do Shotgun for cakes. Some people shred up the cakes and spawn to bulk, and in that case you would use a monotub.

If he's gonna shred up cakes I think it would be better to do them in individual trays in a mono setup, especially since the contaminated cake might have spread something

I think he just fans it, which could also be a cause for the bacteria flush. Not the fanning itself, rather the poor FAE

:whoa: make that thing into a sgfc. You can thank me later. That cake with the black.. you didn't see by chance already have mushrooms that opened and dropped spores?

If not I really wouldn't be having that in there.

Same kit I'm using sadly. But I'm not near that point in growth yet. But you can best believe I will be using a SGFC after I dunk and roll my cakes.

I imagine these guys find the site to buy the kit, then they realize it's not going well. They find the site to help them troubleshoot the kit (shroomery) and we beat their ass for using said kit.

:shrug: Somethin' like that?! hehe

I started with a kit.  Tried it, hated it, started looking for alternatives and eventually ended up here, learning how to do it all myself. Its a learning process.  At least you have the willpower to get started o.p.

People use kits because marketing works. Same reason small beer making kits sell for twice what the idems cost separate. Honestly i rather see people go straight to grain spawn. Monos are way easier to set up. If he had a min mono under the sink he only need six holes instead of 50.
