u can it'd make for nice pics. since tinfoil blocks like. ps. cubensis takes light to intitiate primordia so it'll just pin and fruit off top :smile: just like TMC where they fruited outta quarts and such :laugh:.

Whoe Socates...lol...had to read that first sentence real slow a few times to get my head to stop spinning!
As far as fruiting from a cupcake/foil thing I have never done it. In theory it should block the light from the bottom and sides and only pin and fruit on top. This will choke down your area available too fruit but may encourage bigger ones. Possibly more flushes as well. The cake will retain moisture longer but it will not absorb any moisture from underneath either. Mabe try adding a straw after the first flush, and adding steril water to the cake that way. Try it and let us know how it goes. Post some pics if you have any.

That is great colonization of your casing layer, when it pins you will be amazed, remember to post some pics. That cup cake casing is hilarious, although you are defeating the purpose of casing, I mean you have less of a surface area than cakes would have, but its still cool none the less.

Socrate's- That had to be the most confusing sentence that I have ever read, but maybe its cause I'm a little red-eyed right now, but by that sentence I can see I'm not alone

:shocked:I have done something that some people havent tryed yet?? wow thats a shock to me ( Heads getting bigger again lol)And as socrates said maybe because of the smaller surface i cxould produce LARGER fruits im hoping i can just get them to fruit anything at this point seeing how i just started and these are my first's

i really hope it will pin soon and good for me and OF COURSE i will share my pics with all of my fellow cultivators for ur veiwing pleasure lol.....

What do you all think about that last casing i posted pics of is that cool u think it should do good??

yea thats dry verm on top and no perlite in the bottom seeing how the casings are good and moist already so i figured they would hold that in with dry verm on top

And how dry verm is alot harder to get contams as they cant colonate on dry non-nutrious things because no moisture to germinate on

Well you need moisture in the casing layer, thats one of its primary functions, to provide the mycelium with a humid microclimate. I don't think dry verm will work very well as a casing layer.

you can mist it to add humidity too it but im with ski on this one :/ casing layer is for protection from contams and moisture control. should always make verm with some water and throw it in the microwave for bout 10 mins.

In reply to:

It'd be nearly impossible to get a correct moisture content by misting.

Cult- What you should do is scrape the dry verm off and put it in a mixing bowl and add water until it is saturated, cover it with a plate and nuke for 10 minutes, let cool and then squeeze out any excess moisture while re-applying. I know it sounds like a pain, but if you don't, you most likely will get nothing from that casing.

not really. just add water little by little and make sure u keepup with measurements like then u can get a ratio of verm to water and kinda guesstimate how much casing was applied and u can get a rough estimate :/

Well the problem is getting the correct distribution through out the casing layer. Its possible, but very hard, I know, I lost a couple of verm casings because they were too dry, I tried to spray them, but they didn't do shit.

well if you could guesstimate then the water would be pulled down to bottom due to gravity and what not so i think it'd work fine/well. but u gotta be a good guesstimator :laugh:
