Are the lids lossen? They might be haveing trouble "breathing" if the lids are tight and the inoculation holes are still covered. A lose lid with foil on top should do fine.

Well providing the proper gas exchange that myc growth will take off that means removing tape then loosen lids a bit and flipping them. Yes you can certainly cut corners but it will cost you yield as well as a lesson not learned (patience) aside from that clean off all uncolonized substrate and rinse cakes under the sinks faucet then throw them in a tupperware container with distilled water and a shot of h2o2 over night then make up your casings the next day. GL with that :wink:
