Beef blood poured on top of my soil.
Top answer
From the KNF library
Here is what the library adds.
Good IMO is typically fungal dominant. (Pure KNF Manual, p. 70) In the library's rice traps, a white cloudy covering with little to no red or blue mold marks a successful collection. (Unravelling the Mysteries of KNF, p. 58) A rice trap covered entirely in green means anaerobic microbes have accumulated. (Unravelling the Mysteries of KNF, p. 58) Compare your pot's growth against those signs.
For a closer look, the library's microscope test is to compare soil with and without added ferment over 12 hours to see the microbial burst. (Office Hours Ep. 29, 36:45)
The library judges rice traps and ferments, not raw blood on soil. It does not say what your growth is, whether it harms the pot, or whether to remove it.
