Heat Shocking theory

Why waste the unique form of radiant warmth of your clothes after the dryer, when you can heat shock mycelium at appropriate times? I theorize that the heat is particularly desirable because it has a dry heat

Does heat shocking mycelium actually work? I'm still new but I've not seen any mention of it.

Why is a dry heat desirable? You do know that mushrooms like moisture right?
AFAIK cubes do not benefit from a temperature "shock" of any kind. Minor temperature fluctuations are fine, but why force it? Trust me, you will see far better results by putting your efforts into cloning, isolation, and establishing good sterile habits than you ever will blasting your dryer exhaust into your grow space. Or whatever you were planning to do.

I theorize dry heat radiates into the core of the cake; this is useful if you are on your "final flush" and you would want to get everything left you can out of the cake.
What would happen is the dry heat, radiates into core more than other heat, evaporates the inner cakes moisture into areas closer to the surface, and areas more relevant for the final flush of mushrooms. my theory anyway im gona try it
also the cake's core might moisturize better when dunking if dry heated first

No offense man but this is advanced stuff , try learning the basics of growing first IMO

dry heat doesn't radiate well. Hence why it takes so long too cook things in an oven while using a frier or poaching takes way less time. Dry heat doesn't penetrate well. This is why humid days make hot and cold seem worse while a dry day with low humidity makes cold and heat more tolerable
The mycelium network moves water astonishingly well so the whole cake is like a water highway no need to "push it out of the center"
