My PE Cake has been full colonized and consolidating for 3 weeks now.
The GT Cake (right) only had one inoculation point take off. It just finished fully wrapping around the outside of the jar today but I will consider it fully colonized new years day incase there are parts of the interior still left to go.

I also have 8 cakes of king oyster that have been fully colonized for almost 4 weeks now.

Still not 100% sure what I want to do with them. I thought I'd be able to fruit them as cakes originally because I was planning to do blue oysters but my wife changed the request to king oyster trumpet at the last minute and I didn't bother to search on how they would do on brf cakes.
Very happy to have a contam free PF run going.

Also wanted to note that the king oyster mycelium started out more light and grey colored but as they have consolidated they have turned snow white.

Finally birthed my cakes tonight. The PE has basically been consolidating for a month and the GT 1 week.
God damn I missed the smell of fresh myc in a jar. Even after you pop the cake out and your done cleaning everything off and then you put the empty jar up to your nose and take a big whiff before you rinse it out.

Fucking heavenly.

It has begun, growing in this cupboard until I install a shelf in another room this weekend:

3 days later I am really impressed with the water tub tek. I kept the lid on for the night then cracked it the next morning. The vermiculite on the outside looks well hydrated. Usually in an sgfc you'd see everything drying out by now. The myc recovered nicely and is fluffing up a bit.

In the bigger tub the one on the left is cubensis and the right two are king oysters.
I wasn't able to find a 6500k cfl in a store so I had to settle for a 5000k LED bulb. Not happy about that as I used to just replace my room light with a 6500k cfl and that did wonders for all my grows before.
I am a bit concerned about temperatures as it's very difficult to get heat pver there. I'm half considering putting a heating pad inside the cabinet (off to the side and to the back just to generate some more heat in there) when i temped the water in the bigger tub it was 66.6 (nice) and the air inside was 70 (probably from the sub in there) however after the cabinet was open for just a minute taking pictures the temp dropped to 61. It's honestly just lower than what i'm used to growing at.

Looks wonderful!
As long as you dont drop to 59F or below, you'll be fine If it gets that low, I usually turn on my personal electric heater.

1.18 PE taking off. Loving water tub tek.

Fahster was dead on correct with the allowing PE to consolidate for 2 weeks (mine went for basically a month). We see people struggling to get their PE to fruit and I'm going to make a seperate post when this is finished that just calls out allowing the consolidation for PE on cakes. (Repeating PE on cakes again for search results.) Penis Envy's unique genetics really seem to require that time to munch and think about how it's going to make those fat fruits.
Not sure what I can do about the king oyster cakes. I don't know if its the lack of wood chips or the slightly higher temperature or maybe a combination of both but they don't seem to want to fruit. I'm considering turning the jars right side up for those and popping them in the jars because I know they like to fruit from bag slits.

1.20 Coming along nicely. I thought the fruits might get a little bigger but honestly this cake came out fantastic in my opinion.

GT has knots forming so it shouldn't be too far behind.

Oh I know they will, but what I meant was I can kind of judge roughly where they're going to end up at. I may not even harvest tomorrow. Kind of feeling like its going to be either sunday night at midnight or monday morning before work.
