Help ID contamination and actions I should take blue looking mold
    #23923209 - 12/13/16 04:12 PM (7 years, 1 month ago)



I have 9 cakes. Today I noticed one had an off color. After looking at it with a flash light it was apparent there is a blue discoloration on my BRF cake.

What is this?

Can this be saved or treated and continue to harvest?

Will my other cakes be ok?

Can I harvest the mushrooms or should they be thrown out along with the cake?

If I have to throw the cake out can I let the mushrooms mature more or harvest now and throw cake out?

I put it in a separate chamber and rubbed the discoloration with a Q-tip. I did this in multiple spots. None of the discoloration rubbed off on the Q-tip. Is this just bruising of my cake?

Yes it's bruising. Just means the surface got dry. Mist directly to keep it glistening with no pooling water.

As Mad said it just looks a little dry.
If you still feel paranoid about it keep it isolated but just make sure it gets the moisture it needs.
