I used King Arthur Whole Wheat Flour as instructed, and within the first 24 hours, my starter had doubled (tripled maybe?). It was also extremely sticky, stretchy, and gooey when i was removing half for the feeding on Day 2. It doesn't have a bad smell, but it definitely doesn't smell fruity at this point, I'd say it's slightly musty. After feeding it a few hours ago, it seems to have already doubled again. Not sure if these are good things or bad things, and would appreciate any thoughts.
