ideally you want to get as much moisture back into the sub as possible between flushes

There is a rule out there to never scrape. I think it was Roadkill who said put some water in your FC about a half an inch or so for about 12 hours then drain.

I'm almost positive it was Roadkill. I would check some other post and see. But what they are saying above is correct you want to rehydrate before your second flush.

goldie, with all the setup I would think you're capable of searching on the board.

That being said, I've done it for you (i suggest "rehydrate casing" as your search term).

I found this thread which I thought was very interesting

http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/1668500#1668500

Rogers opinion:

My opinion:

Very thin new casing layer, spray down heavily.

Hope they help. Second flushes aren't all that challenging anyway so I'm sure you're going to be just fine.
