Is it too late to add some peat moss to cover it again? ...or should i let it be?

You should start more cakes and follow a tek. Holy shit man. Seriously?

Maybe I should have worded that more accurately... Will adding a layer of peat moss on that cake make it flush better than leaving it alone?
I have loads of cakes, loads of coir bricks and yes, I'm serious.

So I've decided to incubate my experiments usuing a Tub in Tub with a fish tank heater last night and the colonization exploded over the past 24 hours.
Here's some pics with the first two showing the speed of colonization without being incubated:
RF+Verm+Coir - 4 days colonizing (ROOM TEMPERATURE)

RF+Verm+Coir - 6 days colonizing (ROOM TEMPERATURE)

RF+Verm+Coir - 8 days colonizing (INCUBATED)

Room temp has been ± 60 °F

Wow your room temp fluctuates a whole 60F? I think you meant to use tilde (~) which means 'about'.
What is the incubation temp?

I don't know what 'stones' are and at this point I'm too embarrassed to ask...
No no no lol, it's the symbol for plus-minus. About 60F is the room temperate, usually below 60F though.
Incubation is at about 80F.
Stones are usually referred to as:
1.)"a hard solid non-metallic mineral matter of which rock is made, especially as a building material." - Google
2.)A fungus which grows inside of the substrate, usually known as Philosophers Stone's/Sclerotia

The plus minus is used for fluctuation tolerance. Not trying to argue semantics but I used to work with precision blueprints, that's what it means. So I actually misspoke, it would be 120 degree of possible fluctuation, Nominal +/- 60F.... Trust me on this. You are using that symbol wrong. 60F +/- 5F is where you're chilling at.

So here is a little update on the cake, it's on the left. Both were made the exact same way using a MS syringe.

...and here's a close up on the one on the right:

These are Rye flour cakes, cased with coir.

So...in the name of experimentation.

Here's an updated pic of the same cake from the first post. A few early starters have already been harvested on here. Count the knots?

Good god man. Start new cakes and follow a tek. This hurt my heart to look at.

I understand I thought I was doing so good 'cause of the pin set...
I'm learning from the mistakes though, It seems the only thing really wrong with this is the FAE? (Small caps, fuzzy base, long stems reaching out for air)
Constructive criticism... bring it on

Yeah they look a bit stale try adding more holes for FAE
