2 Week Checkup
    #26677381 - 05/17/20 06:04 PM (3 years, 8 months ago)

Back again! It’s been 2 week since spawning and my cake has pulled away from the walls, has mostly colonized the casing, and there’s still no contamination. There is however some slight bruising (bottom right corner). My friend and I birthed our cakes at the same time- he first spotted his pins a few days ago but his casing later isn’t nearly as colonized. What is causing this difference? Notice anything that notes I should change what I’m doing? so misted a few hours ago and I think I’ve misted two or three times since last weeks post (it was recommended that I mist). Thanks!



EDIT: I’ve had the lid latched on the shoebox the entire time

Well it's clearly knotting like crazy which is a great sign, pins are coming soon. What concerns me is the yellow discoloration of the myc which I'm assuming is due to dryness. Either way it's not healthy and might be trying to fruit for survival purposes.

Other opinions?

It’s not quite as yellow in person, not sure why my camera did that. But yes I did think it dried out in the first week, but I’ve been on it since and it’s grown considerably. Here’s a pic from one week since spawning

If it's drying out I suggest that you mist it.

It could be dry enough that it'll benefit from bottom watering...

I second this, use distilled water if possible.

I would wait for the flush to finish before bottom watering. This is going to pin soon. Differences between your growths are because you're living in different environments and you probably spawned a little differently. And of course, different genetics.

I’d definitely do a light misting.

Just a few sprays over it so it rains down.

That’ll prob make it pin real quick, it’s got all the knots.
