Contamination? PF Tek
    #28379105 - 06/29/23 02:28 PM (1 year, 6 months ago)



Can someone tell me if this is contamination on my PF Tek cake? I’m not sure if it might be trich or bruising, has a bluish tint
Species is Blue Meanie, has been in fruiting conditions for 10 days. I’ve been misting and fanning 3 times a day throughout, allowing fine mist to fall on the cakes. The only thing I’m not sure about is if I waited long enough after colonization to begin fruiting conditions.
Any advice is appreciated

That looks pretty contaminated to me. I would toss it if it were my decision

To me it looks like bruising because the cake is too dry.

I'd give it a good mist and see what happens.

Thank you, I will try that. That was my thoughts and my hopes as I have 5 other cakes within about 4” of each other and they only have the bluish tint on the very top where mist may be landing. And correct me if I’m wrong, but I thought if mycelium detected contaminants it would jump start and basically try to spread its mycelium and/or spores as quickly as possible
