Finally fruiting, but cakes have grey/green tops * 1
    #27074759 - 12/06/20 07:59 AM (3 years, 1 month ago)

Hello,

A quick overview: 5 weeks since PF TEK inoculation, 3 weeks in jars, 2 weeks in chamber. Temp at high 70s, humidity high  80s. Primordia and pins coming from the bottom of the cakes, which are whiter than the upper
section (the upper 80% is darker than the bottom  20%). I QTipped the greyish section with no residue on the QTip, which someone on here suggested might rule out contam.

I'm misting to maintain moisture and fanning afterwards. 12/12 appropriate lighting.

Some of the fruits have a whitish section on the caps, others don't.

Anyone: Am I dealing with fruits that are erupting from contaminated cakes? Do they look OK?

Thanks for any suggestions; much appreciated.

-WoC

Yes. I see trich. Salvage what you can and toss the rest. Don't eat and mushy/slimy fruit.

Hi, professor,

So,any/all fruit are potentially unhealthy for use?

The cakes were nice and white when I birthed and dunked. Is it likely the contamination came from misting water? Fanning? Who knows where?

Color me a first-timer now contaminated with disappointment but enough  patience to try again.

Thanks ...
