Pf cakes experiment

I have succesfully finished my first grow, 3 pf cakes out of 5 with and average of 10 g dry per cake. Now i want to experiment a little, because the shrooms were very weak, i think because of the substrate or weak genetic, dunno. However, i have made two spore prints off the two biggest and whealtier shrooms, and im thinkins of make:
- 2 pf cakes with the new formula 2/1/1 instead of 4/1/1 - 2 pf cakes with the new formula using Potato dextrose water instead of normal water. Some guys in another forum sayd that this has speed up his colonization time 300% - 1 pf cake new formula, potato dextrose water, calcium carbonate to help the fruit bodies and some lemon juice added to the water to lower the ph raised from the calcium carbonate.
What do you think?

Where have you read 4:1:1 from? I thought I'd scoured every PF guide on here, and never seen anything recommended other than 2:1:1.... That may be why they weren't very good?
Also, are you sure they were 100% dry, how are you drying?
From what I've seen, 10g is quite a bit for one cake. If they weren't totally dry, they might have shrunk down to ~7g, so the 2-3g that you ate wasn't actually as much as you thought it was...

I have never heard 4:1:1 from anywhere, so yeah, maybe 2:1:1 would be preferred.

I guess the 4/1/1 ratio is a mistake. 2/1/1 is what you want. Adding PD could be beneficial, it is worth a try. Check my signature for similar experiments. GL
Edit: 10 grams dry for each cake is good but not extraordinary (unless it's a single flush)

don't worry, about the potency. When I first start a strain, I always get small weak shrooms, but after 10 generations they are large and potent! It takes time for the genetics to work out the kinks. my cakes are 2.5;1;1 ie 2/3 c.ver.;1/4 c.brf;1/4 c.water per cup
