Clone it for days
would cloning carry the increase in potency? or is it increased due to stronger/older myc? ? ps. complete noob here..

I dont really know im also a noob but it would carry on its amazing survival skills that much i know

Almost forgot the thread myself, haha! Sadly, nothing has happened yet :C I try to fan (change air) the box 3-4 times a day (sometimes im not home so it is difficult to maintain a schedule). I also mist 2-3 times a day. It keeps an even temprature at 20 degrees celsius and an humidity at 100%. So far as daylight go, it doesn't get much, but as far as i know, shrooms doesn't require that much light to grow anyway, right? On the bright side:
I got a backup project
 Injected spores about 20 days ago. This looks much more promising!  But i have a question; when the mycelium has spread 100% (in the mycelbag) should i birth it like the cake i already have (it is BRF and verm substrate) or just open the bag up and let nature do its thing? Or keep the bag closed and just wait?

I thought i should give an update on this. NOTHING HAPPENED. nothing at all. Big surprise right 
I broke the cake in half to see the inside, and it just looks like dead or dry mycelium.
Still, it was interesting and fun to try.

Well, if nothing else, it serves our curiosity. Thank you for the update. More people should experiment with this type of thing. Heck maybe even a collective thread.....

If the OP has an agar dish, I'd like to see a bit of that myc transferred to see if it would grow (is it alive?)

if you still have it I would break it up more and dunk again. It might be so dry that it was like a very dry towel, which can repel water at first. If it was so dried out the myc might have become very solid and simply not take on water.

When you dunked the cake how long did you dunk and was it submerged or just floating on the surface of the water? Its been ages since I've dicked around with PFtek, but I know that my Shiitake blocks need to be well submerged for them to absorb the water. If they are just floating on top they don't absorb shit.

drilling some holes into the cake would be a good idea as well, so it can soak from the inside.
