Soaking cake after 1st flush (slime?)
    #27451572 - 08/31/21 09:45 PM (3 years, 4 months ago)



I just harvested my first flush today and I proceeded to soak the cake in distilled water and I just checked on it and I don't have a bowl big enough to submerge the entire thing and the part that's exposed appears to have some sort of slimy layer? Is this contamination or normal

Probably bacteria. Just rinse it off as best you can. I've seen it happen before and the cake still performs decent so don't worry especially if your cake did ok with the first flush

Well I just took it out of the soaking tub and used the rest of my distilled water rinsing it off so hopefully that will do it.. I was also thinking it could be water coagulating after absorbing all the particulates from the inside of the cake including mycelium because it doesn't smell or anything so I guess we will just have to see..thanks for the tip!

i noticed if you cut your fruits and leave stumps, the mycellium around the stumps get transparent if you get water on them. i think its just mycellium and when it dries itll go back to being white.

:thumbup: also feel free to use tap water, distilled doesn't really make a difference

I don't know I live in an old house, like probably a hundred years old and after reading the water report in my town I only use tap water for washing dishes and getting a shower lol but thanks for all the advice!
