PIN PORN!(*UPDATE!*)

my cakes are dry as fuuuuuuuck and bruising pretty gnarly. i mist alot to try and hydrate them. they suck up all the water in like 30 minutes...so a goooooooooooooooood dunk and roll is in order after first flush.
2 1/2 pint BRF cakes knocked up with malabar. took a month to colonize,dunked for 15 hours and rolled....and almost 6 days to pin. i think theyre dry because it took so long to pin, and i had problems keeping humidity up.
comments and thoughts graciously appreciated! rate me?
so that was yesterday....
today they doubled in size! check out that gnarly mutant with gills coming out of what looks like a mouth. it reminds me of something from the movie tremors. overall pretty small fruits....but maybe the subsequent flushes will provide some bigger fruits. AND.....my first pins from a 1/2 pint malabar spawned to 1 pint of coco coir cased with a miniscule ammount of verm. first bulk ever!

Those look great to me. Took a long time, but that sure is a nice cake flush. Doesn't look like they gonna abort either. Keep doin what you're doing.

Is the blue the only reason u suspect they dry? I bet they blue from misting...

You can also set them directly on the damp perlite for a day or two or until the flush is over then just give em a good ol' 24 hour dunk.

one of my buddies once over-misted some cakes and they looked exaaaactly like yours (bruising). only time i've seen that much bruising. i'm guessing if your cakes were too dry they wouldn't have pinned that hard...they don't look that dry to me...?
After this flush, pick up a cake and feel how light it is. it will give you basis of comparison to a fully saturated cake.

when i picked up the cake by the jar lid it was really light. idk, theres probably alot of factors in it. but i do know that about 2 days after it started pinning, it started bluing like crazy.
lol whatever, dunk it is!

Michael's or other craft stores carry it for flower drying.
Someone recently posted about their success using white rice. Seemed worth trying. Is definitely a lot cheaper.

sweet. thanks guys.
so, i WAS going to do some prints and give mack to the community for holding my hand through this process, but my fruits are a little on the small side.
so, after the second flush i will be making prints to give away! all you have to do is jump through some hoops.
