Growth Chamber has a weird smell

It doesn't smell like anything is rotting and there is no sign of contams but it's sort of like a strong disinfectant smell, or sort of like a new sneaker kind of smell, but really strong. This is my first time growing, is that what my cakes are supposed to smell like? It's been a little over a week now and still no signs of pinning.

this happened to me as well. my casing has a reaaaaaallllly strong chemical like smell. not exactly rotting, although close, but more like some sort of powerful cleaning agent lol. i am kinda scared there might be some contam or bacteria, but i haven't seen a thing.....
it'd be nice if anyone has ever grown shrooms with that kind of smell (you would know what i'm talking about if you had) and seen wtf is happening. it's not a regular mushroom smell. kind of weird 
thanks guys you rock.

Are you growing in a brand new Rubbermaid type plastic container? I noticed my new one had a distinct chemical/synthetic smell to it. this usually goes away after a few washes. Think this could be it?
