Hello,
I inherited a mushroom substrate and I would like for others to tell me how it looks.
I've been trying to keep it moist and at a decent temperature, giving it a little bit of light, but not too much. But it's been two weeks and no growth. It also looks rather "sick". It's covered in brown spots, as you can see from the pics, and it's starting to look "pasty" rather than "fuzzy" the way it looked at the beginning.
Can anyone tell me the signs to look for if you batch isn't going right? Thanks.
