Why do more mushrooms grow from the bottom of cakes?
    #9903702 - 03/03/09 01:57 PM (15 years, 29 days ago)

as the title says... was just wondering why it seems like most cakes have more mushrooms growing from the base then the top?

i kinda think its because theres verm there, or its closer to the perlite. anyone know?

ideal conditons for the mushies to grow, so they grow there first.

Gravity pulls the available water towards the bottom. More resource = more growth.

your lid is holding water, shrooms dont like swimming. 

I know you have verm there but its still alot more water than the top.  could be, Im just speculating.:shrug:

try foil instead of your lid, excess water could drip into the perlite that way. just what I would do.  :thumbup:
