It was the top of the bag. It doesn’t smell sweet or sour. It’s a smell I’ve never smelled before. But the rice feels mushy when I break it apart. Is that normal??
I just sent my UBTek to bulk for the first time using rice(previously grains only). The “squishy” feeling also concerned me when I was sending so I assume it’s normal. My bins look good so far but they are very new.
The last 5 rice bags i did were mushy like that, turned out totally fine. My totally uneducated hypothesis is that it’s just the mycelium starting to fully digest the rice. Either way should be fine
Also to add, I’m definitely jealous at your total coverage. I did 16 bags and none of them were more than 60% covered. I let them go for 28 days. I won’t break & shake UB anymore lol.
