if it is easier for you and you don't mind spending the money. Others will say it is a waste of money, but it is up to you in the end.

i have tried both varieties, golden teacher is supposedly easier to use for beginners. Maybe do only a few PE to start with? But yeah they should be fine to work with.

You'll be fine. Keep the RH perfect for PE.
Expect 1-2 smaller flushes, 1 large flush and 1 tiny flush with large fruits. Some cakes may give you 5-6 flushes if you're super lucky, with diminishing weights after the 4th flush.
You can usually get around a dry ounce from a properly fruited cake over it's whole lifespan. I advocate dunking and rolling in fine verm between each flush. You can score cakes lightly with a sterile fork after dunking and before rolling too. Not necessary by any means, but it helps some cakes produce larger 4th and 5th flushes, with increased contamination risk.

Scraping with a fork is just destructive.

Spores are really potent...it only takes a few drops per hole.
