Too much casing = bad?

After birthing my first brf cake I dunked it for about 10 hours then rolled it in verm. Within days I saw clusters of pins. When it was said and done I flushed the cake for 70g wet weight then proceeded to dunk the cake again for another 24 hours. I read you can roll again or not but I decided to anyways. The reason I'm asking this is because the first time I had clusters of pins now after about a week I only count 12. Could I just be impatient? Could it also be from bruising the cake due to poor handling?

Nah its just that every flush after the first one will continue to be smaller. If you've noticed, you're cakes have probably shrunk a little as well. The cake uses a lot of energy and its own resources to push out fruits, which causes your cakes to become weaker and weaker every flush. No worries man.

That sounds disappointing. I've read about people having better subsequent flushes. If that's not the case I'm definitely going to have to try a bulk grow sometime.

It happens, usually not. It's not disappointing, its just how it works. You can get multiple flushes though, they add up. 7g from first flush from one cake. I'd take it.

you can have better consequent flushes but that usually happens when conditions for 1st flush was poor. You want the sub to push out as much as it can on the first flush so you can put new fresh cakes in the terrarium instead.
re-rolling in verm isnt adviced because you give the mold spores that have landed on your cake a nice microclimate to germinate in. also dunk your cakes for the full 24 hrs, cakes are dense and require some time.
