Mycelium Question
    #7655997 - 11/19/07 05:30 PM (16 years, 2 months ago)

When will i know if my cakes are fully colonized with mycelium?
Does the myceliium grow on the outside of the cake first and then on the inside? The outside of my cakes are done...no pins yet...how long should i let the cakes stay in the jars until i put them in the trrerarium? I am using BRF cakes pf tech method. Any advice of how miuch longer i should let the cakes wait? It's been about 3 weeks since inoculation. I kept them at 75-78 degrees. Like i said, the cakes seem to be done, but i know the inside of the cakes needs to be colonized as well.

wait 1 week after full surface colonisation.

This question has been asked many times, next time use the search engine first.

Correct, one week. However, the reason is not to allow the middle to finish. I doubt seriously the outside would get done without the middle also being done, since each inoculation point to the middle of the jar is no farther than each inoculation point to the top and bottom of the jar.

We wait one week after full colonization to allow the mycelium to digest a bit more of the food it has colonized, thus allowing it to consolidate its hold on the substrate. It won't fruit before this week passes anyway, so it's best to leave in the jars. After a week, birth the jars, dunk and roll, and then place into fruiting conditions.
