it could be low on moisture with the dry verm on the bottom. might have kinda sucked the water out of your substrate. if it doesnt smell bad then that would be my guess.. try spraying it down with some sterile water.. mix it up maybee its risky some might say.. but i never have much of a problem doing so as far as contams go..


also if your checking it alot that can cause growth to slow.. too much air exchange when you peek in.. i did that as well.. thats about all i can think of

ive only taken the foil off twice just to see how the top was colonizing. ill giv it a couple more days and then giv your suggestion a try. i did notice white finger like things of myc sticking up uot of thr mycelium i think thats a sign that its looking for moisture.
