Low temperatures will slow growth. Think about bringing the temp up to 28-29 until you see some growth through the casing layer. Then bring it back down a little.

ps. I'm sorry I don't know your native language. If we try we'll get by. :)

I hope you sterilized the casing well.Raise the temp and it should colonize quicker.Be on the look out for contams.

keep it misted with h2o2/h2o and just let it wait... If you are seeing growth, it's probably ok. Just give it time, and hope it doesn't contaminate... 6 days isn't very long for it to colonize, they sometimes take 2 weeks or so for me...

I would stop using the h2o2 I think you are overdoing it a bit. Just shut the lid and fan once daily. Let the casings be!

Please could you stop the noise I'm trying to get some rest
