Cake turning blue and not fruiting

So my other cubensis cakes are pinning and healthy and I've managed to get 3 harvests already, but there is this one Cambodian cake that has been sitting in the chamber for over a week not pinning, and now its starting to turn blue, I know blue is bruising but why wont it pin when all the other cakes in the same chamber are shooting up?

Its dry as fuck mate the surface is matting its that dry. Spray that bitch and sit it in a bit of water in the dish lid foil whatever you have them on. I'd be tempted to redunk that if not bin it.

Thats what I thought, but all the other cakes are damp to the touch but this one is just really dry and it sitting with all the others, might just chuck it

Set it in a saucer of water for a few hours. The network will soak up all necessary fluids. Get it wet, roll it in verm again since your casing layer is gone, and put a teaspoon of wet verm on top. Let sit 48 hours before misting again.
I've had this happen more times than I'd like to admit but that always fixes it.

its pretty old, it took over a month to fully colonize and it hasnt pinned for 2 and half weeks, plus its starting to smell like old socks, but the rest of my cakes are fine, gunna do what adden said and isolate it in a grow bag

Yup, spray it down good and fill that lid it's sitting with water and place it back in the chamber. Make sure there's no fan pointed at it or any direct air current for that matter

It smells like old socks, I'm not surprised it's bacterial. Fuck it toss it.
Rerolling is an option if you no longer have a casing layer but need one to induce pinning. It's good for now and again, but not common practice.
Wait for full consolidation next time.
