Well, let's try this again. I tried posting earlier this morning but apparently I did something wrong and it never showed up in the forum.
Anyway, my cat just inoculated his very first grow (B+). Jars are sitting in a clear tub in the closet and planning to turn that into shotgun while the cakes are dunking.
Been doing so much research today and the past few days that I have a killer migraine. 
Oh, and my cat used the PF TEK with the brown rice flour/verm substrate mix. Had to grind brown rice since there was no flour to be found. Also had to break up verm by hand as it came in pretty big chunks.
Sidenote: was pretty surprised to see how gold the verm was....pictures don't do it justice. Was pretty to look at.
So that's it...Hope this is the first of many posts, and will post pictures once there is something to take a picture of.

Right on. You should check out the videos "Let's Grow Mushrooms!" Everything you need for brf cakes should be in there. Post picks when you can. Be prepared to wait a while for spores to germinate too (0.5-3 weeks).
Bummer about the migraine. I've had a headache for almost 2 weeks now. I'm setting a personal record. Finally gettin some bud today tho.

-------------------- Sometimes
By Thomas S. Jones, Jr.
Across the fields of yesterday
He sometimes comes to me,
A little lad just back from play–
The lad I used to be.
And yet he smiles so wistfully
Once he has crept within,
I wonder if he hopes to see
The man I might have been.

Thanks to both of you!! I've watched the let's grow mushrooms vids before, but I'm going to rewatch them in case I've missed anything.
The downside to research research research is that sometimes you can blend info from more than one source and end up doing it wrong. For example my cat watched the videos for the shotgun terrarium (I think) and remembered that when mixing the substrate that there should be a tsp or so of water that pools at the bottom of the bowl. But when using the normal 2/3, 1/4, 1/4 recipe, it doesn't do that. My cat ended up having to add extra water, and so there is some concern now that it may have been too much. Time will tell. No worries, if my cat has to do it again, so be it.
