I would do what anc said. It makes sense and you don't want the cross cotamination. They got to be close to done because me and you started right at the same time and I used qt jars at room temp and have been colonized for almost 2 weeks.
I just can't make sense of this... but, I'll take the advice and start working on the dunk & roll method tonight ;)

Break out the redbull's because it's gonna be an all night session tonight boys!

I think you will do fine. I wish I could help you more but the dunk and roll method is not part of my tek so I don't know much about it. I will be routing for your success though bro.

Thanks a million bud!

I just wish this would of gone a little smoother... where do you recommend me putting the other two cakes (possible contaminated ones) to prevent cross contamination?

I posted a simple bucket fruiting closet in ess' thread, the lid has a hole cut in, with seethrough vinyl window siliconed in.
Throw a bunch of wet perlite in the bottom as you don't have a large substrate to hydrate the air. Make some 1 inch holes in the side and plug am up with polyfil.
 
gypsum powder will not break your tek... i am follwing the same tek as you are and have had 3 succesfull tubs... works great and still am tryin to perfect it.

O.k ANC Tomorrow is the 2 week mark that my tubs have been wrapped up in the dark. I peeked today (1 day early big deal) and thy are around 70% colonized with a few tiny pins. What should I do?

So how much longer do I wait to give them light and air? Do I wait until It's solid white on the whole top layer? Can I check on it every couple of days?

no, you don't want it solid white on top, in fact if it starts makeing too solid patches on top later on we will patch those spots with verm.
I think if it started pinning you can let it get some light and a bit of air.

Thanks man! I have em out in the middle of the room now with the lights on and the ceiling fan running. I have to put them in the closet st night when the little one gets home but I have a little fan I'm going to run in there to keep air moving around.

Just keep a flow of clean air going... as we all know stale air leads to contaminants!

I see a good steady 12/12 cycle of light and darkness as a good trigger of pinning ;)
