This is part of my series "The Basics"

Some people get confused by how and when to mist cakes. Some people may take this understanding for granted, but there are still some very smart noobs that need a little extra help. So, I thought I'd start a one stop source for all things about cake misting.

What I'd like to see is pics of cakes before and after misting at various stages of growth so others can see what you do. Sometimes words just aren't enough to explain it. Aslo try to include a little explanation.

Here is some vermiculite I put in some petri dishes just for an example. I don't grow cakes anymore and am amazed at how few pics there are of "glistening" and "no longer glistening" cakes.

Remember, everyone may do things a little different and that's great. With enough pics, a pattern should emerge for those who need this thread. Just post your stuff and try to move on without too much criticism of others. Be respectful. There's already a ton of explanations, so pics is the main point of this thread.


Dry

Damp


Glistening with moisture

Verm has it's on sparkle because of some of the smoothe surfaces of the little bits. But we mean the glistening from the water itself.

Mist cakes directly until they glisten with moisture. When it's not glistening anymore, but still appears damp, you can mist again. You can even let the verm dry a little and some people actually prefer that. Only fan right after misting, if at all, and only a couple of passes with the lid is all it takes.

If you are running out of room to store pics, I might renew my supporter account and start storing them for you for the purpose of this thread.





Should I use the "Dunk and roll" method, my cakes have been fully colonized for 1 week now. Sorry to bring up an old thread just seems a relevant thread to ask it on instead of starting new! Also do I keep misting once mushrooms start to form? thanks

Should also add another part... "this is what TOO WET looks like:[PIC] "
