hahaha 18 grams wet??? lmao wow thats gonna dry to half 1/8 lol. you should always dunk and roll it makes for a better pinset. you can also scratch you cakes mildly with a fork it also helps with better pinning though i dont know why. i usually average about 70 wet grams per half pint pf cake when i grew with cakes
It's the guys first time growing mushrooms, hes doing it purely for the experience of growing them. Why come to his journal and laugh at the yield he got from his first cake, first run?
Kinda a dick move, if you ask me.
lol fdd you hate me huh? its all gravey you know your my idol.
anyway man next time just dunk and roll people do it for a reason. and im not a dick im just ah.... misunderstood. lol good luck to you and your advantures man. btw my first pf cakes yielded 5 grams and up. why??? because i dunked and rolled. it makes for more prolific pinning.
also next time throw a little spent coffe grinds into your cakes, there loaded with good stuff shrooms love.
i think when people tell people what to do when no help was ever asked for only do it to boost their own egos. why else would they feel the need to "help" someone who doesn't seek help?
i was following a "specific tutorial". everyone reading the thread knows this.
well, almost everyone.
i have harvested 1 of 12 cakes as soon as the veils opened. simply because I WANTED TO. the others are twice as big already and still growing.
My thought was that you are just doing it to do it and aren't interested in all the different methods etc etc. Then the comments on how 'poor' you did were somewhat of a buzzkill.... IDK Just my thought.
i have harvested the first 4 that went in together. i don't have a dry weight yet. i have rinsed off all the loose stuff and am dunking them for the day. then i'm gonna roll them in vermiculite and put them back in the chamber.
my perlite is feeling somewhat dry so i am lightly misting the 2 other cakes in this chamber. i can see how the mushrooms grow where the moisture is. i AM learning a lot.
i have 6 other cakes in the second chamber. i put these in with the dry side up and am lightly misting these as well.
sucks not being able to post pics. now i know how half the forum feels.
