I came to realize my dilemma... They will just have to wait until Sunday night:
1. I leave town in approx 19 hours from now
2. I'm going to sleep, after a nightcap <bubble, bubble>
3. I won't be around to pamper them this weekend
I figure; worst case scenario, I lose a few early pins... Maybe that will assist in a more even flush? Does anyone ever really get an even flush from "brf" cakes?

About to leave home for the weekend... Upon my return; my plans are to:
-PC four pint jars, with approx 300ml distilled H2O, for 30 minutes. Lids have syringe filter disk and vacutainer port.
-Mark pint and 1/2 pint jars to associate one to one, with eachother
-Using a 60cc syringe and 16ga needle; will extract sterile water to 1/2 pint cake for 24hr soak
-Remove soak water and place back into properly marked pint jar of H2O
-Test myc-water with my stupid BRF/H2O petri thingies
-Use good myc-water to noc up some grain jars
So am I nucking futs?

Thanks for the reply, Doc...
I though I could do a "sterile soak" for my cakes... to make some myc-water to noc up some grain jars...
Think it'll work?

I think it should work ok. I think you could also just stab a syringe needle into the cake and aspirate a bit of juice then just inject into LC broth. I did this with a fresh shroom. I tried to get a tissue sample from a mushroom only to squirt in some mushroom juice, no noticeable tissue entered the jar. I only saw a slight mist leave the syringe (mushroom juice). A few days latter I had a beautiful culture going that worked flawlessly.

My cakes are now dunked... Had some of the cutest lil pins... Boy, they blued fast! Wow? Three are soaking with sterile water inside their own original jars. Three are dunked in a pot of water with a weight holding them submerged.

HorizonSpawn, congrats on a fine first grow. It's nice to see someone willing to do it right the first time. I'd give ya +5 shrooms if I was allowed....not at 50 posts yet.
I guess it helps not to be a teeny-bopper with no source of income other than your weekly $5 allowance...this appears to be about half of the noobs on here...although I admit to being one of them once upon a time...I just didn't know about the shroomery back then...don't think it existed.
anyways.... can't wait to see pics of those first few beauties.

Some pin porn pics I snapped this morning






One is just starting to pin. The sixth is about to start pinning (i think)... Definitely can tell which four had started pinning in the jar... and to think, I rubbed all the pins off before putting in FC
