Cold shocking is not necessary. Don't case with soil; you'll be much happier with coir and verm.

if your going to cold dunk them just scrape your top layer of dry verm off fill with water place in fridge when i do a cold dunk i plop it out in a plastic bag bill with water and fridge either way is fine. cold dunks aren't really required if you incubated at a higher temp and when you fruit at least a 10 degree drop

ok i might as well ask all of my questions. when i plan to case my ckes would it be ok to put them in a potting soil mix with thes components? : Canadian Sphagnum peat moss, Perlite, Vermiculite, limestone, and a wetting agent?
I wont be casing them for a while i just wanted to know now, my first cakes a about 30% covered and i am very exited and anxious to see them fruit!
