They are just PF strain bought from PF. I used the PF Tek maximum fruiting formula. The only thing I did differently in preparing the cakes was that I sprinkled the rice/verm into the jars very lightly - just making sure that there were no air-pockets. They took about 3 weeks to fully colonize. They were at room temp, 60's at night, high 70's in the day. I kept the caps on tight unless there was significant water buildup, then I tightened them as soon as the water dissipated. I didn't birth them until I saw dozens of good-sized primordia. My terrarium is a large strerilite tub with a loose-fitting no-drip transparent lid with an aquarium light sitting on it. There is a heating pad under it set on low, 4 inches of moist perlite in the bottom and two pickle jars full of peroxide/water with mini aquarium heaters in them. The temp was a constant 80 degrees fahrenheit. It is kept in a dark, draft-free place. The cakes were placed on an upside-down lid full of very moist vermiculite, and I misted the cakes heavily with a weak peroxide solution about one time per day (only when they were totally dry to the touch). I even kept on misting after the bodies appeared. That's about it. All my other cakes were almost as good as this one.
