Can I dunk a second time before pins hit?
    #22048793 - 08/05/15 05:26 PM (8 years, 5 months ago)

I dunked 5 days ago, and there are no pins.  I do not think the dunk was successful because the substrate doesnt look moist.  I basically just filled it up with water for an hour then drained it, however i do not think the water penitrated/soaked the inside of the sub.

the top of the surface is slightly grey looking, and the pins are kind of grey.

I doubt it is a contam, i will take pics in a little bit, but would a second dunk be harmful?

I figure it happens in nature so I doubt it

If your doing cakes an hour won't do jack. 24 hours is how long you are supposed to dunk cakes for.

what the fuck do you mean 'dafuq', explain yourself fool...

It imitates rain, and ive read RR write it initiates pins quicker due to agitation or something.  RR sprays with a hose, im not going that far...

:lol: No need for the shower, just let the sub soak for 1-4 hours, stuff polyfill lightly, and wait for the next flush

I'm not sure what substrate you're trying to
re-hydrate. Is it cakes or a Bulk Substrate like a
mono.

Only cakes get dunked for 24 hours. If you are dealing
with a Bulk Substrate, then you would simply pour water
over it. Until the water rises an inch or so over the top
of the Substrate. You would drain the water off the
substrate say an hour or so after. I wouldn't let it sit
more then 2 IMO.

:whathesaid: I almost never even dunk bulk. If you're getting a really amazing first flush then it will need to be rehydrated but usually the amount of hyphea left after that is almost not worth a second flush anyway.

Lol I know that there is no need for a shower, I just want to make sure that the water seeps INTO the substrate because it seems so thick and when I poured water on top it kind of just stayed on the surface.

I will drain for an hour and just let it air dry overnight, figure it can't hurt to have extra evaporation and FAE, but will the lower humidity screw me over with initiating pinning?

Anything I get out of this last flush will be fine by me, just trying to milk it then dump it out.
