Is my cake contaminated? Crystal Growth
    #27787554 - 05/21/22 10:04 PM (2 years, 7 months ago)

Hello Community,

Can someone please review these images and identify if something has gone wrong with this cake? Very odd occurrence swim has never experience.

Please note modest pinning has started.

If more details are required, lemme know. :smile:

Thanks all!

It looks like aerial mycelium to me.

It seems to be reaching out for fae. You might need to increase it slightly.

What kind of fruiting chamber are you running?

Thanks for the response. Adjustments can be made to help with this.

Currently it’s in a plastic bin with several some holes drilled into it. There is a decent size hole drilled in for the humidifier hose.

A fan can be placed on the outside of the box and directed towards the holes to increase fae. Could that work, or would another method be suggested??

I would skip the fan, it will most likely dry things out to much. 

Honestly I'd probably just try and not worry about it.  Maybe crack the lid just a touch more. 

Some say it is a lack of fae I  have also heard it is caused by being a bit bacterial.

You should get a decent flush or two hopefully!

I appreciate the feedback!

If it is something bacterial causing that, could it make for a bad batch? Sickness concerns?

Is there a way to combat it, or just leave it alone like you said? lol

I wouldn't worry about it causing sickness.  Most of the time the bacteria won't effect the shrooms at all.

The drying process heating is high enough to kill most bacteria if there is any left behind though.
