Yep, the cardboard cakes did indeed pin and later gave me medium'ish sized mushys.
If your getting low on verm, I would definitely recommend adding small cuts of cardboard to your mix. I've done this recently to stretch out my supply of verm.

The BAD-
They dried out quick and seem to have took longer to pin than verm cakes.

The GOOD-
I didnt have any mold problems and was able to get a few flushes out of each cake.


Happy Growing!  ;-)

If you'd just case with verm & fruit it straight out of the jar without birthing (like the old Oss & Oeric technique) I bet cardboard cakes would do much better. Cardboard can wick water away pretty quickly. Leaving it in the jar and casing would make it much less likely to lose water before a flush.
