Should I birth now? Or wait 3 days???
    #23980848 - 01/04/17 09:07 AM (7 years, 26 days ago)

-Long story short, I have 4 cakes 100% colonized. Issue is, I don't remember which ones are fully consolidated. I know for sure at least two are, but the other two were a little behind. I'm going to be away from home friday afternoon until saturday night.

Q: Is there any way to determine which are/aren't?
Q: Should I birth all 4 before I leave my house or should I wait until I get back Sat night for the dunk?
Q: How long can cakes remain in jars(after 100% colonization) before they start to pin/fruit? (If I wait until sat, it'll prob be close to two weeks for the two that I know are for sure done.)

Let them be, even an extra week would be OK...

They can remain 100% colonized for weeks, they will eventually start fruiting in the jar like crazy, but you can def. leave them alone as long as you need.
I wouldn't birth them now, give them some more days. Cakes that had a longer resting(consolidation) period tend to produce even better than cakes who didn't.

Giving them some extra days to chill will be very good for your grow.

:heart:

for future reference, labeling is super important.

it sucks to have projects going on and being half through and all the sudden go... 'shit which one is which?!?!'

Awesome! I like the proof to make me feel better.

Also, how long are your needles??? That dry verm layer is pretty thick.
