Title: bruised mycelium
Post by: milesbeyond on December 10, 2004, 03:24:27 PM
I am a newbie and so everything that happens is great but at times perplexing.I have read that if any contams get in then throw out that cake. Well I was moving a cake to another place when it fell off the lid I picked it up and placed it gently back on the lid the  next day i noticed a blue green every where I had touched and where it had touched the table as well. I almost threw it out but I couldn't bring myself to.Instead I moved it away from all my other cakes and watched it closely. To my surprise the bluish color faded and the cake progressed and fruited very well. My question is Was this a normal chain of events was it just reacting to being touched and are the shrooms safe to consume? THANKS FOR ANY INPUT>

Yes, it is normal.
