Okay, I'm usin PFtek with cakes and all that jazz, theyve been doin well actually, it happened once before and thought oh well, its a fluke, but now a second cake is sick. Like, I dont know if it's a contam or what, but the mycelium turns greyish and the pinheads/babies get rottie.. and then in like a week the cake is all crunchy and hollow and dead and just mushes under any pressure. Now a second cake is turnin greyish and every other one seems still healthy. Please tell me what you think's goin on and more importantly how I can stop it!
Thanks ~M

Ok, so if you are using the PF tek i would assume that you are misting your cakes with a spray bottle. If thats the case try adding some H202 to your water, like a 20:1 water to H202 mix and mist with that mixture. It should help keep contam to a minimum. Also make sure the inside of your incubator is wiped with a bleach solotion every now and then.

If you could post a picture of any kind it would help immensely. It sounds like a contamination to me... but I'm no expert. I wouldn't risk getting the other cakes sick, personally. If in doubt, throw it out!

I'm lost bro. Did you birth with the gray showing? Need pics yo. Also what are your temps? That is usually a big prob with newbies. What type of incubator set up are you using? More detailed info would help.
