So the mushies that were growing on the top of one of the cakes have an undeniable increase in growth in this last 24 hours. This is the most growth I've seen since I started this whole process. This is the one cake I didn't re-dunk last night along with the others because I thought the pins looked healthy. I also wanted to compare a treatment rigorous misting and fanning of this particular cake to the redunked other cakes, just to see what the end results finally turn out to be...
So I've been misting and fanning ALL the cakes quite a bit. I also got a stronger CFL and a more constant light cycle.

Finally! I was really starting to get frustrated. Coming home from work to this was so nice!

It's Getting Better All The Time...
So the one cake is looking great and I see improvement everyday. The other cakes that got redunked have a couple new pins on them, but the pins that were already on them turned black.. and I mean black... so nothing significant there. We will see what comes out of the pins, but those cakes just seem dry, dispite the 12 hour dunk. If nothing really happens by this weekend I'm gonna clean the cake when I harvest my one nice one and dunk all of them for a full 24 hours.
Is this ok? Or should I just leave them until they stop fruiting on their own?

If they're light and seem dry, redunk for the full 24 hours. An alternative during flushing is to set the cake in a saucer of water and let the substrate draw the water slowly that way. Be careful it doesn't waterlog. RR

Things are looking up with your grow...good news:)
What I am finding after just having had my 6 month growing anniversary is it requires constant attention and mental calculation to keep the grows happy. Where I am living now, the difference in environmental conditions in my house are extreme in a six month time frame, plus trying out new strains constantly leaves me with a glimpse of the big picture but realising that I will forever be observing and adjusting. I think that is what I like about it. The puzzling aspects that can be solved by patient observation and action.
At least I HOPE so...lol

Where I live is the same. Very very dry in the air in the winter (a large part of my problem now...) and overly humid in the summer. Different times of the year are going to have different effects on my grow, but I love tackling challenges. I think that's why I got hooked on the project so fast.. it keeps me focused and it's just so interesting. I'm a gardener with a green thumb at heart, although I'm not sure what color finger a shroom grower has..

A great qoute, the difficulty of the aspects of growing are whats keeping me going as well. Its like trying to understand a dynamo that doesnt want to run:P
OIne question tough, How does one know when a cake is waterlogged?
