Cambodian Cubensis on pure rye cake (pics)

I decided to fruit this cake without even rolling in vermiculite as I usually do with my cakes. I have been very unattentive this time and haven't almost fanned at all. Which could partly explain the bad pinning. Maybe the second flush will be better.

I should probably have dunked and rolled, but out of curiousity I skipped it this time. I could do it on the second flush.

Remember, dude. Curiosity killed the cat. 
I checked out some of your other grows, and you've definitely improved from when you first started. I'm thinking you're ready for some trays or a monotub grow.

This cake at the moment is by far the worst grow I have done.
I will try bulk at some other time, I need to eat up my stash before.

I didn't dunk this cake but yeah, I think it makes difference. Vermiculite is really recommended, I think it's more effective than just dunking. I've had cakes where I just rolled the cake on wet vermiculite and the results where much better than the cake this thread is about.
This cake was never dunked but I did however roll it in wet vermiculite and as you can see, at least it pinned good.

Well, I wouldn't call it dumb. But from my limited experiences vermiculite is essensial for this kind of cultivations.
Without perlite and vermiculite I would be pretty much fucked.

I don't know what I was thinking (if I was thinking at all) when I decided to fruit this cake. It was harder than usual to pick the shrooms, lots of ingrown pins and I had to rip off big chunks of the cake while picking. I will dunk and roll it for the next flush. Surprisingly enough the first flush weighted 85 grams.

That is one gnarly-lookin' mofo. I'm really bad at harvesting those sorts of cakes without mangling and bruising it.

As I am just a beginner and don't feel confident enough to do this on a bigger scale. I'm playing around with 1-2 cakes at a time.

No, I usually do 5 cakes per batch, but now I'm gonna move to 1/4 pint jars (from 1/2 pint jars), so maybe I'll double that.

looks like you got most all you pins at the bottom due to the lack of verm, but still 85g wet is pretty decent for a cake.
Swim has some cambo cakes going also. A few are fruiting currently. I was wondering what made you decide to harvest

I can't help wondering why my Cambodians always gets so blue when they are dried. None of my other Cubes shows as nearly much bruising as the Cambos.

Yes, dunking and rolling really makes a difference. That's for sure.

Its funny because i see the difference between your 1st and 2nd flush and its apparent the 2nd flush is doing much better. I'm actually having the exact same results with some cambos currently.

Usually that is an indication that your cakes were dry on the first flush.
So, yea... dunking and rolling does make a big difference.
You dunk to hydrate, roll to bind verm to the surface which in turn traps moisture when you mist, allowing a water supply to the surface of the cakes where pins form. One of a fruiting mushroom bodies key necessities. H2O.

I never mist and I am quite surprised I got nearly 90 grams of fresh shrooms from the first flush. I didn't dunk or roll and still it fruited pretty well.

That is because you had a cake that retain moisture well, this is not always the case. Even then you would have likely had a better yield if you dunked......

Of course, you're right. I was afraid that the rye wouldn't even get colonized because it was so wet when I inoculated it and it took forever for it to colonize. I would definitely have gotten a better first flush if I had dunked and rolled from start. Or if I misted for that matter.

Cambodians was what I started off with and this is the second time I'm growing them. Definitely a favorite, reliable, potent and a beautiful Cubensis variety. Love 'em!
I thought the second flush was going to be more than the first one but I was wrong, it turned out to be 80 grams fresh this time.
