Hard White Balls
    #5606924 - 05/08/06 10:36 PM (17 years, 8 months ago)

One of my cakes recently started growing these strange white semi-balls. They average about 1/2 inch in diameter. There are only a few of them on the cake. This cake has at least 30 healthy pins that continue to grow. I took a sterile knife and cut one of them off, and cut it in half. The inside reminded me of a cap, in that the inside was the same color and consistency of the grey matter under a healthy cap. The only difference of course being a lack of a stem, and a hard white cover over them. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Wait... So you mean, the gills were growing inside a ball of mycellium???  Thats what I got from the explanation.  Sounds freaky!  Like some gnarly mutation.... take pictures, this sounds interesting!  If it is how you described, and nothing more, I'd say leave em alone till harvest and since it is the same fungus at the other mushrooms, you'd have a fun time tripping off them  :smile: 
But send pics for proper identification.
Good luck!

Having another problem with the same cake. So now a few of the mushrooms' stems are starting to turn green(could be bruising?). There is no sign of contamination on the cake. Some of the other mushrooms are getting these little white hairs growing out of the caps. Thanks.

Sorry, no camera.

Similar thing happened with me, I just left them on the cake and eventually the gills became visible from the outside and they grew a stem.
