So I am about to birth 5 cakes I have a couple of questions...
    #11031610 - 09/09/09 11:35 PM (15 years, 4 months ago)

First of all, I heard that dunking was not really necessary on the first flush, should I dunk or not?

Second, when and how do I roll them on dry verm?

Third, my terrarium is not see through at all, not even the lid. How can I trigger pinning with lessening the chances of contams due to taking the lid off?

Fourth, I'm using perlite for humidity, do I still make this a shotgun terrarium or does it not work that way?

Sorry for my simple questions, I'm just not 100 percent on everything and thanks for the responses

Yes dunking is important do a 24 hour dunk after birthing after 24 hours rinse off then roll in dry verm. Dunk for 24 hours after each flush. fruiting chambers are not supposed to be sterile its all good.Use the shotgun its awesome . Also fan and mist 3-6 times a day

1. yes, you should dunk

2. heat the verm up in the microwave for a few mins let it cool down and roll your cakes after the 24 hour dunk wait a few hours and mist em down real good in your FC

3. cakes are very resistant to contams and you should make sure they can get at least 10-12 hours of light and you should hve holes in the tub and fan it ou every few hours

4. yesmake a shotgun  www.mushroomvideoscom ; look for the SG terrarium tek
