bubblesup Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 First time I have seen my cakes during fruiting stage develop fluffy white bellows with crystals like. Any thought is it good or bad. I do have one mushroom growing though. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradg Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 In my experience, "fluffy white" is the cobweb mold. I had a bad infestation while trying to use a new humidification setup. It grows on the cakes at first, then takes over the bases of the mushrooms. I took out my cakes, washed them, sanitized the container, replaced my perlite, and used scissors to cut chunks out of the cakes where I saw any mold. After a couple days, I cut up the cakes again. My yield was down, but I still got some usable medicine. google cobweb mold and see if that is your problem. Best of luck! bradg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
