I have eight jars that have consolidated for about 5 to 7 days. Jars are completely white. Like i said on saturday will be for 5 to 7 days. I want to set up my terrium and move my jars to them. My question is i dunk for 24 hours roll in verm place my cakes on foil in my terrium. I have a setup i made humidifier and so on. perlite is going to soaked in strainer and placed in the bottom. Is this right way to do this? And how important is light does it need to be on a 12 and 12 cycle

If you're using a properly built terrarium, and using perlite, I would ditch that humidifier. Sounds like you're almost ready to birth some cakes! 12/12 cycle is ideal. Doesn't need to be direct light, ambient light is fine. I use direct, as my lights do not give off any unwanted heat.

Its my first time. I thought about using a sgfc. But i saw a tek where i would not have to mist all the time. And after birthing my cake how long can i expect to get some lovely shrooms?

Cant go wrong with a SGFC. Almost fail proof. With that said, it just depends. It wont be long.

I use completely natural light, such as placing them next to a window when the sun is out, (blinds shut) illuminated whole room for 12 hours

I just finished my third round doing the exact same thing. My caution is to make sure your hands are clean all the time so not to contaminate anything. I even boil my water for 10 minutes and then let it cool to room temp for the dunking. Also alcohol swab my tin foil that the cakes sit on. Call me paranoid, but so far it's worked. I've gotten 3-4 flushes before contamination

Completely unnecessary, fruiting is not a sterile process. Tap water and normal foil

some people do, and swear by it...personally i just do the inital dunk N roll
Also as a side note, i dont think there is such thing as being Too Clean, if you prefer to take extra steps to prevent contamination...do it. It may be unneccesary, but if you have a dirty house, or especially a cat, or other animal, try not to let any cat dander, or hair, dust, etc build up, because though the fully colonized substrate is now resistant to contams, if you allow a different medium to be placed in and or around it, whats to say that can be a stepping stone for a contam. Cleanliness is net to godliness.
