How big are the portions that are uncolonized on the cake? If you do birth them, then I would suggest cauterizing the uncolonized areas. I've birthed jars without doing it and almost all have become contaminated. Why take the chance when you've already put time into them.

I feel cheated, where can I get the stuff that makes eggs look like brains?

Yes, your jars will still pin invitro, may take a while though. For quickest results and decent yields, birthing your cakes would be your best route to take.

emetheus: if co2 doesn't slow things down, then why take the tape of the holes or flip the jar upside down, that would lower co2 levels and allow fresh air toenter the jar, and if this is what your after, then birthing is the optimal way of accomplishing this.

ok first of all, all the people that are saying that the invitro jars take a long time to pin are completely wrong, because they havent ever tried it that way, my foaf's jar pinned in 10 days. But I seriously recommend not growing invitro. he tried invitro and he only got 15 wet grams on his first flush. Well he decided to just take the cake out and put it in a small disposable microwave container and dunk it for 24 hours in water. He removed the water and just left the cake in the container still whole, and within 2 weeks at the most he got 45 wet grams from that cake, now its on its third flush.

it's not co2 that slows things down, but rather, the lack of oxygen.

it's good to share your results but you must be careful not to draw conclusions that aren't supported by the data.
you have not determined if the cake would have given less invitro after dunking , since you changed method mid-stream.
just as the others haven't tried invitro yet feel qualified to guess what the results 'should' be,
also they lack enough data to know.
but i'm not saying invitro is the 'best' way ,
but for some people, it is.
to each, his own.
