Umm... is that a cake? If so, it looks alright, but what's with all the brown stuff in the perlite? :rockon:

Its a bit embarrasing. I tried to cut the big cake in half (its a brick from a 5lb substrate bag). When I did the bottom crumbled away and the top stayed intact. Since I was doing it in the terrarium it got everywhere so I evened it out in a pile as best as I can. Theres even knots growing all over that. The black patches is uncolinized substrate.

the cake looks good.. rhizo growth is a good sign.. pins should be along shortly.

you're going to want to remove all that crumbled stuff, though, imo.. especially the uncolonized bits... that's just inviting contams.

:smile:

Even all the crumbled stuff that is just sitting in the perlite is showing lots of rhizo growth. Maybe I should scoop it out into one of those tin pans, let it incubate for a few days then put it back in the terrarium?

I havent really done anything else other then fan 5-6 times a day...

Thanks for the advice!

Either clean it up and try to fruit it somehow, or just toss it, but definitely get it out of the terrarium. The weakened parts of that mess might easily grow unwanted organisms.

The other cake thing there looks pretty alright though, good job.

hmm well I just scooped all the loose stuff into a pan. It wasn't really that loose when I picked it up it was pretty much a solid mass of myc. I put it into a foil lined pan and also put foil tightly over the top. Do you think this will be safe to incubate like that for a few days before putting it back in the terrarium as long as it doesnt have anything strange growing?
