This is my 4th loaf but my first time doing more than 75% hydration. I think it looks pretty good! (!?) Lmk what you all think

Here’s the recipe I followed (minus the whole wheat flour, I subbed that with more AP flour)

    Looks like it held really well especially considering you added in AP. My flour craps out at about 87% hydration. What flour are you using?

    um… that recipe isn’t 90% hydration— simplified hydration (just water/flour) is 82% and even taking into account the flour and water in the starter, it’s only 83.8%.

    It is still surprising to be able to achieve that with the bulk of your flour being AP, though.
