Hey AchillesLast (that's an excellent song by the way)...
I actually decided to turn the cake into a casing this flush around, hopefully it doesn't fuck it up, I'm just hoping for a bigger yeild than the previous one, so yesterday I broke up the cake, laid it on a layer of damp vermiculite and covered it with slightly wet vermiculite. I basically followed casing instructions... Hopefully within a few days I'll start to see the mycelium poking through...
I'm also waiting for my spores to come in the mail; should be any day now hopefully. Once they do, I'm going over to my buddy's house to sterilize and innoculate the jars (there's 8 of them, 2 for each strain, 4 for each fruiting chamber... I have 2 fruiting chambers)...
I'll keep those grows updated in new threads as this one's called Golden Teacher grow, which wouldn't be relevant anymore since it's different strains... hehe...
