Day 139: Dehydration.

Screw the other theories about shrinking cream and crevices; it's just dehydration. (zzzzz)










And not only the top is doing it, Shoggoth in general is doing it. (Thanks, sun!) I wanted to take more pictures but my battery ran out.

So anyway to prevent Shoggoth turning into a barren wasteland of dried out fungi, i'll need to add more liquid to all the layers. Thank god i still have that syringe.

So i went out and grabbed some ingedients to add more liquid to Shoggoth (first i try to dehydrate him and now i do this? yep...) and i found some more chemical stuff used for the aquarium, it was promising at first, it increased the Ph and Kh grade in liquids, (speaking of which, i still have to test the Ph Grade.) but it was also disinfecting so i dismissed it. Instead i decided to go back all to the beginning a bit and add something extra;










Yep. Squeezed out orange juice again. Well actually it is also mixed with the usual Sugar, and a little amount of that fruity milk. If i would add bread it would be Shoggoth in baby form. The syringe is filled with the aquarium fertizilizer combined with... gravy. I have no idea why i inserted gravy, but i did.

First i poked a hole with a stick, injected the syringe's contents into the hole, filled the hole up by moving solid cream on it and then...










Instant color change!
And now to wait till Shoggoth has started to suck up the crap. And yes the syringe cocktail already started leaking out, oh well. I shaked the container a bit to.

And now to Eden; Eden is boring to write about of lately, the only real change of the day;









So i was thinking, what if i would feed Eden again, but instead of just "feeding" him i basicly throw in enough food to build an entire new layer above the old one, like a two story building.
"Yo dawg i heard you like mold so..." Because right now, Eden is pretty and all, but the aquarium fertilizer brown spots haven't even dissapeared yet, he's slower than Cthun.


Goddamnit my fingers smell ALOT like fungi now, the next thing you know i'll be climbing upwards somewhere. Brb shower.

  2. Is the pink a reflection or the bacteria returning?

    I love the idea of a 2 layer Eden, it would be awesome (some1 make a yo dawg!)

    Add some swedish crackers to Eden if you want to create layers. It would take a while for the mold and shit to chew through that and when they do, two entierly different fungi cultures will have been created.

    It'll be like pushing two anthills into eachother, but without the tiny carnage (?).
