Help! Bruises or Contam?
    #7955741 - 01/30/08 01:58 PM (16 years, 2 days ago)

So I opened up my FC just now to see that right around the top edge of my cakes there was a blue tint on some of the myc. I don't know if it is a contam or what. Can you all offer any advice?

Is that what it is? It is possible because I only dunked for ~9 hours.

This thread was moved from Mushroom Cultivation.

Reason:
I answered this very question in detail yesterday. You'll learn far more by reading at least that last 100 threads in each forum than you can ever learn by asking. I'll move this to contamination forum.

=/ Man, everything went perfect up until the fruiting part. It looks like almost all of them have a little blue on the myc. around the top.

if it's blue it's probably bruising and your cake is drying out.

if it smells ok, then just dunk it for a while and make sure your humidity in your fc is high enough..

dunk roll. mist . place on drenched vermiculite.
then plop on a spoon full or two of drenched vermiculite to the top.

during fruiting, keep that top layer wet with water every day or two.

look up double end casing.

the bruising is from you fucking with your cakes so much. it has only ben a week and you are going to put your cake in shock again and keep it from pinning for another 2 weeks? Wtf.
Stop fucking with your cake!! Put it in the fc, keep the humidity highh, the fea up, and directly mist it with your spray bottle that you have. Oh no spray bottle? Imagine that! Get one and start misting your cake!! Dont touch it, you will smash the babies.
Whoever thought the pf tech would be idiot proof was wrong

Run a q-tip soaked in peroxide over the potentially infected area. If it fizzes, its mold spores.

If not, it's just bruising and that small area will be useless but hey, at least you'll know.
