WBS Better than crumbled cakes?

So that's the question. I realize the main benefit of using WBS is the speed of colonization, but are there any other benefits to using WBS when spawning to bulk?
IE, does WBS provide healthier fruits when spawning bulk as opposed to crumbling cakes to use as spawn?

More inoculation points is the main thing, but also you can do quarts or larger of wbs and it takes allot of 1/2 pint cakes to make up the difference. CH

Yeah, my first attempt at bulk was with crumbled cakes, it fruited, but the fruits left much to be desired... about to start fruiting my first WBS run and was wondering what to expect.

Hey Lostkeys, I thought I would point out that, If you were not happy with the performance of crumbled cakes, It's not the cakes fault. I have had stellar results with crumbled cakes. I did a mono awile back with crumbled cakes. Here Also when done properly you get 10 times the amount of inoculation points with cakes as you do with WBS/RYE.

i cant agree with that it depends on how much WBS you are talking about you can only grind BRF up so much

And breaking up a jar of colonized WBS takes a few seconds and a phone book, nothing fancy.
For me though, it's mostly just about the volume of spawn.

Sorry to double post, Doc_T I agree with you %100,When ever I plan on doing bulk I always go for my rye. However when I have ample cakes,In the tubs/Tray's they go
