I think these are ready to harvest... I ordered a food dehydrator and it's supposed to come in tomorrow. Are these cool to ride out till tomorrow night or should I pick them sooner and throw them in front of a fan until the dehydrator gets here?
.. also, I've never harvested before. Should I just pick them or should I use a scissors and cut them off at the base?
.. Super pumped 2 be harvesting fruits that I grew for myself.

My latest shoebox is spawned from MS golden teacher BRF cakes, totaling 1 quart before grating. Done with about 1:2 in CVG, with a generous CVG top layer at spawning. First flush coming in soon!

Waiting 
It's a bit of an experiment. I had 6 cakes 3 Ecuador and 3 Cambodian. I grated and mixed together then mixed with 2Q of straight coir. Now I'm not holding my breath for this one because they was inoculated on the 5th and 26th of December. If it trichs out like it probably will it's no love lost.

I've had no luck with cambodian myself. Have any of your cams turned out?

Yeah in my journal is Cambodian that was my first try. My cam cakes are in full swing. I've top fruited grain jars too. Jars had vert.
 The tub. Thought I'd save the hassle of looking.

I'm waiting for the cakes to finish then I'll get some prints. I'm also waiting on koh sumai and Ecuador to finish for printing too.

So I have 12 cakes ready to grind up and was going to do 4 cakes for each shoebox. How much coir do I need for 4 half pint shoeboxes? I got my coir cooled in the bucket from yesterday’s boiling water pore. Also wondering if I just leave the lids on the boxes until the coir colonize and when I should dub tub. This is all new to me..

I use 1/4 brick of coir per shoebox,about 2-2.5qts coir. Yep,just leave the lids on til they pin and then dubtub.

Awesome, thanks for the info! Can’t wait to see how this turns out!
Edit: Was also curious if I introduce them to light right away or wait till they start pinning. I was doing a 12/12 light cycle for my cakes.

I shred my cakes, then add enough coir to fill her to where I want it. I usually dont go past 4 inches deep.

Okay, cool to know. When do you introduce light to your shoeboxes? I was doing a 12/12 light cycle for my cakes.

Right after I spawn it. Right into fruiting it goes. and I run mini-monos.

Nice makes it easy it’s 3:30pm now so maybe I can start the light cycle tomorrow morning from 7:00-7:00 or should I just give them until 7:00 today and then tomorrow they will get the full cycle?
