Newbie here looking for a little advice.
    #13036659 - 08/11/10 01:51 PM (14 years, 5 months ago)

I have done much research on many methods of growing that im starting to become overwhelmed. I fully understand the inoculation process, the vermiculite and brown rice flower (Substrate). and so on. However once the couple weeks pass and I'm Ready to fruit I lose it.

I read a method that I really liked. It involved breaking up the cakes and layering them over 1/2 inch of vermiculite dampened with peroxide and water mix (1-20 parts) and then layering peat moss over the broken up substrate. However It left out a lot of information. And it makes me nervous to break up my cakes.

The other method it to just plop my cakes into a bin with holes drilled into the side over some moss and verm mix.

All in all I think I'm just confused about the fruiting process. I Have an Ion thingy I can place into a cup of water in the bin that can create  massive amounts of humidity. Is this a good fruiting chamber?

(B+) 

Thanks a ton. This Site is great been reading for weeks you guys really know whats up.

Fruit cakes as cakes. Build a SG terrarium here, dunk and roll your cakes and put them in the FC. Then mist and fan at least 3 times a day.

If you have at least 3 inches of perlite on the bottom of your FC you will have enough humidity. GL
