How long to wait until second dunk?

I've just had my first flush and used a knife to harvest. There are some stumps left over from where I harvested.
At this point how long should I wait until I redunk a second time? I've read mixed opinions.. some say to redunk immediately. Others say to wait a few days for myc to form over the stumps.

Monotubs? You don't have to dunk even once, I just do a heavy mist after harvest.
if you do dunk it only has to be a few hours, after 1st flush.

If you cut mushrooms when harvesting 1st flush my question is does it affect 2nd flush yield and if yes, how much?

No prob man! I may give monotub a try next go around.
Gonna leave this here if anyone has any input on when to dunk. If not I'll throw the cake in some water before bed.

The problem with cakes is that they are easy to over saturate as the myc has a tendency to start to slump after 1-2 flushes. If they feel heavy and still feel like they would weight wise in jars no dunk. If they feel lighter than usual dunk for 12 hours. Maybe an overnight dunk. The stumps do not matter either way, the mushrooms will colonize the stumps and pin on them if the environment is right.
