cake bruised pre 1st flush? or contam?

#955546 - 10/12/02 05:35 PM (23 years, 10 months ago)

so i went to check up on my cakes today,
5 are doing just fine, but the 6th cake has this bluish (brusing?) on it....

thing is, its pre 1st flush.... it barely has any pins on it, and the only handleing was over a week ago when i put it in the chamber! why is it bruising?
perhaps its a contam? i think not, cuz its a blue color not green or anything....
the other 5 cakes seem to be doing fine, putting out tons of pins and what not...
this guy is sort of lagging behind, and is bruised up for some reason....
parts of the mycellum is blueing, and one little pin is blueing....

i dunked all of them at birth, so i figured it would be properly hydrated......

what could be the problem?

Sounds like bruising. I don't think you have anything to worry about.

Just to be safe, i isolated the cake...

What could be causeing the bruising?
humidity is fine i think, i have perlite + coolmist for c02 exchange
the other 5 cakes in the terrarium are doing great....

the only thing i can think of is the coolmist is drying it out?
this cake was pretty close to the wall opposite the coolmist output tube...

so all the moist(?) air from the coolmist was blowing against the wall, and all over this cake... with 12 exchanges a day at 20min per exchange, perhaps thats what dried the cake out leading to bruising???

anyone else have this problem with a coolmist?
