They Come in Peace *pics*

 First grow post Brf pf tek. I inoculated 9 wbs quart jars, and 8 1/4 pint brf jars.
All from 2 B+ syringes from a trusted vendor.
Put 7 quart jars of wbs spawn with CV substrate. Used enough of a brick of eco earth coir 2 quarts vermiculite and 4 quarts of H2O.
After crumbling up 3 brf cakes and doubling the substrate amount for a shoebox grow. I used the remaining substrate to mix my 7 quart jars. With a little left over for a quarter inch casing.
I have another shoebox box that was Is about 5 days behind these, and it is showing first signs of pinning this morning as well.
Kept 2 jars of the wbs for spawn to try my hand at g2g.
Monotub with 4 holes on bottom double taped. And the shoebox unmodified, snapped the lid closed on it.
Shoebox took off first and after a real nice pinset I have left the lid cracked.
The mono was a little behind but this morning it is showing a great pinset.
Zoom in on this to see how many pins are on this small portion of this monotub. I am so excited...!!

Thank you... it is a relief after a few years gap and just doing cakes.
I went ahead and harvested most of these. As the veil was beginning to break or in fact had over night. I used a clean brand new razor blade to cut them down to stumps.
Last night they were a third of the size.
I left quite a few smaller ones and some pins that were beginning.
Work night shifts so I will research if I need to bottom water or not.
But what a great joy to come home and see those standing so tall.
They seemed like extraterrestrials coming down in their craft (yes I have a very active imagination)
Hence: "They Come In Peace" Good thing I went out and bought a dehydrator yesterday, just in time.
Hate to sound naive but what should I gear up to initiate a second flush in this unmodified shoebox?
Any suggestions to get me information/traction further down this dusty road?
Cheers, and thanks for all the positive and encouraging remarks.
Will up date further progress as it presents itself. No scale of any sorts.

So much better than cakes.
Is it the light or are the ones in the back left it the shoebox much lighter colored
For second flush I either soak with the mister or pour an inch or two of water and leave it for an hour or so then drain it. Depends on how big the flush was and how light the box feels. Takes a few runs to get a feel for the weight though.

No they weren't lighter, just the lighting.
I work graveyards and had just got home and saw them and had to snap a picture. Put it half in light to snap picture.
And yes so much better than brf cakes. Funner too. I cut most of them but left a few smaller ones to see if they would catch up. Some did by the time I woke up from nap.
Still going to let some go until morning see if they grow a little.
Then at that time I will try the bottom watering as you mentioned.. Thank you

So this is my plan,going to probably harvest the rest of fruit in morning.
Then keep the lid on the shoebox and let it rest or recoup for a few days, and then soak it in water in the rub itself for like 2 hours and and then go back to 12/12 lighting and a snapped tub and hopefully it will flush again.
Sound like a good plan my friends?

Oops, meant to say "no need to give 'er a rest"
One more quick question, after I put water to it, would it be wise to put another moist casing as I had it before?
Remember these are brf cakes and not Wbs. Thank you and sorry about that typo, stupid spell check...🤓
