Will and am. It's weird, because I've read before that flipping them isn't recommended. Your results look really good, mine should do as good too.

And is it okay to bottom water if there are pins around the bottom edge of the cakes, the other cakes have tons of pins and are going to need it?

I have read you can drill a hole in the cake and place a straw in it filled with water, have you heard of this?

How many inches of perlite is in your SGFC? A well constructed camber only needs tending tops 3 times in a 24 hour period. IME Also I have had growth luck with injecting water into cakes once a day until water starts to come out of the cake. Oh yea of course a little bit of indirect sunshine is always a plus.

I have a new 18 ga. Syringe will that work injecting water? I have 4.5 inches of perlite in the chamber.

Bottom watering is fine I wouldn't want to potentially inject contams deep in my cake but I have seen others do it with success

Better safe than sorry, thanks. Bottom watering it is. What about if it submerges a few pins for a little while?

I have always been under the educated guess that once a substrate is colonized the chance of contamination become minute. Once again that's IME.

Sounds good and good.
Just keep a detailed log of your grows....a mistake isn't failure...only a lesson. Have a good one

For a pin set like those, you can bottom water until that cake is pretty saturated, 2-3 hours, then mist schedule, and if necessary bottom water again.
And I also have seen injections to cakes done well before also, but only a few Ccs at a time and only if there is a dire need to hydrate the cake quickly. Otherwise, bottom watering is just fine.
Those pin sets are looking pretty decent, glad you flipped them. Don't know why people are afraid to sometimes.
-------------------- Don't like researching posts? Read this! . Also, if you're new and your posts contain the words: Humidifer, incubator, air-stone, or heater, then you need to read and UTFSE before asking people to review your setup. OR... You should be cultivating reptiles and fish, not mushrooms.
