How will I be able to tell if inside of cake is ready?

Hi all, This one has been colonising for about 7 weeks. My first one, so stupidly bought a too big tub. Anyway, it's a brf and vermiculite substrate, with a purely vermiculite top layer. The bottom has almost finished closing up, as you can see. The sides are harder to tell as there's vermiculite kind of coating the sides, with an air gap behind it, then the rest of the substrate. So my question is, how long after the bottom has completely closed up til I can birth it? Any thoughts, comments appreciated.

Mine has just finished. It was a 1 litre tub that was inoculated on the 15 of Jan. Just wait for that middle bit to finish. And a few more days.

Legitly thought you were talking about an actual cake. Was about to tell you to just stick a toothpick in it and see if it comes out clean.

They call it consolidation, that few day+ period after you see full colonization on the outside.
Back when I was doing cakes I'd let them go longer but mainly because I'd just set and forget them. It's hard to set and forget when you are new to the science, like you want a status update every couple of hours or something, lol - been there.
Anyway, my point is have patience and it will reward you.

May be my green thumb that taught me my patience in general, rofl.
Three sexy ladies 4 days into 12/12 atm; 
Definitely need to learn some patience in this hobby, you literally have better results with patience in many areas.
Think of it like this: What you are doing is going to become so mindlessly redundant that it will be a literal pain in the ass, like sorting forks for a living.
But, this is phase 1 of moving into the "fun stuff"
Where patience is even more important, but the rewards are far greater.
Good luck!

What ya got in. When I get back from Florida I'm doing some pre 98 northern lights and Wembley (ak48xbubblegum). I've had to shut down till I get back but I did have dark star and super og kush.
Oh and sorry about the hijack and off topic.
Edit: got this in chamber half way through 100hr purge.
