I’d give it an 8.5
That’s a pretty nice and even flush for a cake. I shall guess 43 grams wet.

8.2 but I would definitely take that cluster in clone that middle one.... The big one in the middle of it and try to clone the one far left that's growing sideways and start isolating it and then try regrowing. What ever spores or LC you used had good genetics. That's a pritty thick top flush. but if you clone it you can have way more. Maybe one day even a full cake from top to bottom.

You should cut that foil waaayy down, with good genetics like that the whole cake could pin.

It was 4.6g dried after the dehydrator. I split them with my wife 3 days ago. I don’t know how to clone but I’ll have to look into it. I’ll post a pick of how BIG the pins are on the 2nd flush later.

I give both cakes an 8.9 
Also, trim that foil back to the cake. It doesnt need to be that big. Minimal is best

The first flush should be the best. But sometimes genetics or conditions cause different outcomes. I would bottom water that second flush so it doesn’t abort.

Yea I have a second flush with a bunch of small shrooms I’m pretty sure they are aborts like you said. The same cake also has descent pins growing by the hour. I’ve seen these small shrooms for a few days and they haven’t really made much progress. They are like dwarf shrooms. The cake I dunked after the first flush has those huge pins on it. I’m dunking all 3 cakes after the 2nd flush. Also I have one APE cake it looks healthy but I haven’t seen any pins yet. I only dunked it 12 hours when I “birthed it.” Like I said my GT are on the 2nd flush and the ape hasn’t pinned yet. Other cultivators said that apes cakes can take up to a month to start pinning? It’s dunking right now, so after 24 hours I’ll roll it in vermiculite (I didn’t before) and put it back in my FC. Any tips or suggestions are very appreciated. Thanks, Ex

I read somewhere that the 2nd flush is the “royal flush” idk how true this is.

I’m not sure what that means.. The cakes keep growing in flushes and they all grow at their own pace? I only pick the ones that look like the GT just about to erupt spores. I pick those and let the smaller ones grow and get bigger. Cakes are cool because if you put them in a FC without being rolled in vermiculite (basically naked cakes) you can watch the growing process of that species. I’m a noob but already caught the bug that has me excited about mycology. Also, I know I should be rolling my cakes and I’ll be at Home Depot tomorrow.

I forgot to say I didn’t use no filter on the pic. I’m looking at it now and looking at them in that form thinking “they just look trippy growing.” I ❤️ mycology

Here is a pic of that 2nd flush I picked it and put it in the dehydrator. I’m gonna have a great night. I’m dunking the cake now. I also bought vermiculite this morning so I’m gonna start rolling my cakes after dunking.



So rate this flush, also what do y’all think?

How much are you gonna eat? I remember my first trip on my own grown cubes. It was amazing.
That’s another purdy flush I like sautéed fresh cubes, they taste pretty good if you cook them in butter and mix with a little food and since they’re cooked you don’t get any real stomach discomfort. Something to think about if you have enough fresh ones still growing.

I’m eating all 10 when they are dried. Last week I ate a flush that was 3.6 dried. I felt great and had good visuals. Then the next two flushes I split with my wife that were both about 2.2 dried each( 2.2g each dried, my wife and I ). I felt euphoric both times but hardly no visuals. I’m not splitting this flush. It’s all for me tonight 😊. I’ll let y’all know how much the flush weighs dry before I eat them. 😂💪🏽

Nice looking cubes
Try APE or any PE variety. I ate 14g fresh yesterday Which is the equivalent of 1-1.4g dried and it took me by surprise. It was way stronger than 3g of b+ that I grew.
Here’s what they looked like on the first flush

This was just 2 BRF cakes shredded to coir/verm in a 1:3 ratio with a thin casing layer of coir/verm.
Over 120g wet first flush but I don’t see it having a big second flush If any

I have 3 cakes of Golden teacher and one cake of APE, it hasn’t started to pin yet. I have a thread about it: https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/26891527/gonew/1#UNREAD
I’m starting my first mono tub tek next week using treasure coast LC syringes and rye berry jars. I’m excited. I hope I’m successful because I know you get ALOT more fruit with the mono tub tek and someone told me the TC’s have a descent potency. I only ate GT’s I’m excited to try the Apes 🦧

Potency is for the most part pretty random/average with most classic cubes. Mutants like PE/APE/PEU, KSSS, and RW are often reported to have a higher frequency of potent genetics emerging however from spores anything can still happen like completely bunk PE. It’s rare but possible. TC are just a classic cube for the most part. I only grew em once though.

Genetics has nothing to do with contaminations. Your multispore syringe contains a multitude of spores and may be low in potency, or have mutations due to genetics. Contams are all due to sterile tek

Yea I didn’t make or use a SAB. I know now the proper precautions to take now to keep contamination to the minimum. I’m definitely using a SAB for my mono tub. I’m even gonna practice with while the jars colonize lol, so I’ll master the SAB

I’m injecting 6 qt of rye berry with treasure coast ( for my first mono tub tek ) and 6 grain jars for cakes of Rohan Honduras. I’m using a SAB this time. I’m also using LC this time. It colonizes faster. I’m hoping for no contamination. I’ve been doing my research.
