I have stlling problem with cakes. I have 24 1/2 pint jar in progress as we speak. only half of them have accually almost finished. The others have just stopped. Now i have the temp set at 80-84 it fluxuates depending on the time of the day. but never goes higher then 84. The humidity is steady at 80 - 85. So i don't undrstnd why they haven't taken off like the other 50 million i have made in he past. First time i have seen it. I also use BRF subtrate mixed with vermiculite and of coarse water. Why have they stalled?

#1 what are you inoculating with..(syringe,myc.cult.,etc...)? #2 have you changed the amount of any of the substrate ingredients?
Let me know about those two questions, and then I may be able to help better. By the way what strain or strains are you researching?
Best of luck talk to you soon. The Bum

Try increasing the FAE the jars receive..
If you have tape on the jars, take it off (as long as you used a dry layer of vermiculite while making your jars).

I would personally take the tape off anyway, and put some aluminum foil over the tops instead.

More FAE would be better if your using WBS or other grain type substrates. I was thinking maybe you added too much water but you said you didnt change that. I would have to agree with Mustard Man. Good luck.

They need filtered gas exchange during colonization. Either you'll have to get some breathable tape, or take your chances loosening the lids a bit. RR
