Sweet Smell
    #7832312 - 01/04/08 03:21 PM (16 years, 28 days ago)

Ok so Last Monday I birthed 2 half pint cakes and put them directly in the FC. Yesterday I thought they looked a little dry they had grown a little bit of fluffy white mycelium. Other then a little bit of blue bruising they look perfectly healthy.After dunking last night I woke up this morning pulled them out and rolled them. The looked enlarged from the dunk like they appreciated it, however they had a sweet smell to them. Is this a normal thing ? Do cakes have a problem of getting contaminated during this process? Any help would be appreciated :smile: I know they were done colonizing, I left them in the jar for a week after 100% outside colonization.

i'd say most likely not it's probably something in your fridge/water that it smelling.  mycelium usually smells kinda sweet to me :smile:

plus i dont know how many of the contams can grow underwater.. but that's just speculation.

maybe isolate them.. if it's anything like cobweb (which i seriously doubt) it will manifest itself very shortly then deal with it accordingly..

it's probably nothing though.  but that's just me.  i haven't had a lot of experience with other contams.

make sure that you are getting plenty of humidity to the cakes in your FC.

Already took care of that :wink: Im not experienced with contams myself, nor smells. When I birthed them they smelt more like an earthy mushroom smell. Now they smell like a cake sweet smell. But maybe thats just them thriving. Thanks for your comment :smile:

Well even tho not to many people replied to this post a few days ago, I thought I would update the progress... The sweet smell went away yesterday, and today when I woke up I was happy to see over 15 pins already half an inch long.

It was a little warm in the FC while this flush was growing, It was around 80% anyway I think that is one reason they grew quick but skinny.
