Can you flip your monotub cake between flushes?
    #26550972 - 03/22/20 01:24 PM (3 years, 10 months ago)

I just harvested one of my tubs and im really not thrilled with this ones surface, so i was wondering if i can flip my cake over and use it like that for another flush? I already checked it and the bottom is fully colonized, its pretty much solid white. The cake is from a 64qt monotub, 3in deep, and its Golden Teachers, if any of that info is needed. So what do you guys think, should i flip it? The bottom definitely looks more enticing then the top that just flushed. Sorry no pics my cam is broken at the moment. Also, i only want one more flush out of this tub so future flushes arent an issue.

I probably wouldn't.  You may have the beginning of a second flush on the surface that you can't see.  Also damaged mycellium and potentially fragments of disconnected mycellium in the process of dying on the top of the sub may contaminate more easily if they are put in a perpetually wet environment under the substrate.  At any rate I doubt your results will improve much from flipping but I could see it have major negatives.  Honestly I don't know.

I spawned some popcorn casings and had double-overlay cause I didn't put enough hydrogen peroxide in my automated aquarium mister.  I only got one mushroom so I cut off the head part where the seeds fall from and put it in a jar of LC and sprayed it all over a tin of PF cakes I made with gravel, cardboard, and bisquick in my microwave.  I think it will be good cause B+ is so potent.
Triggered yet?

Only a square would say "a cube is a cube."


No, this does not look right...
