unless you have a really clean fridge, leaving the cake exposed in the fridge is a bad idea. Not to mention that it'll probably leech the moisture from the cake.

HAHA, I JUST DID THIS! In my area the weather has been in the 50s and 60s and the house is kept pretty cool. So I noticed that growth had slowed down and was looking for a cheap way to to keep them warm, this is my first grow.
So I borrowed a friends electric blanket and have been keeping them warm, but not too warm. Now I'm off to buy a good thermometer so I can tell exactly how warm they are being kept.

what would you say is best for initiating pinning?
1. leaving colonized cakes in jars and putting under light
2. birthing colonized jars and puting them in terrarium under light
so really, whats better in jars or out of jars

Invitro pinning is the safest way. At least you know you have pins pefore you birth.
Try a little of both and compare results.

invitro pinning is like constapation....you know that something will happen eventually,but the process is painful.

a few jars are ALMOST done, probably like 95% for the golden teachers, malabar are still doing good.
i hit the jars lightely to loosen the cakes to fall down so the bottom of the jars could have more room to breath...and some of the cakes broke a lil bit, not badly but still. also the mycelium is more fluffy, is that normal? another thing yous hould know is.... i left them in indirect sunlight for about 4 hours, on accident, is this going to affect them if i keep them in the dark for the next few days?
