Help, growing blue spot on casing/ also casing wolnt start pinning
    #27098075 - 12/19/20 04:31 PM (3 years, 1 month ago)

A day ago I noticed a blue spot had appeared on my casing. I looked it up and it said that it was dehydration but I still have humidity inside the chamber. I’ve popped it open once to give it a fresh air exchange so I don’t think it’s mold. Can anyone help me identify this and fix it? Also for some reason my casings won’t start pinning there roughly 2 weeks old at this point. These are Cambodian in 50/50 tek.

Looks like mold to me, you can open the box and take a picture closer to the sub.

Wait a day and I'm pretty sure that it will turn greenish. But it's hard to tell from such small pic.

Here is a better picture, it’s definitely getting bigger every day.

You don't have to toss it yet. Cutting out the green parts and or spraying it with Hydrogen Peroxide could salvage some mycelium and allow a pinset to emerge. Cooling down the casing to 50 degrees for an hour might slow down contams. Spray until beads of water cover the white mycelium and keep it that way to induce pinning. You might also increase lighting.

I wouldn't keep it around in my house - if you don't already have pins the likely hood of ANY harvest is very low.  Doublecheck the tek you are using for fruiting - those surface conditions look off.
