Looking good ... I hope to birth my babies in a week or so.

One question... do those cakes look a little under colonised?  Especially the bottom on in the 4th pic.  Or is that just verm and ok?

Nice to see shroomies 2 days after birthing.

This makes me anxious ... thanks :wink:

This is the first time I have heard anything about rolling them in Verm. Does this make much of a difference? Is it recommended?

I'll be birthing my first grow in a few days and am going to do the double casing tek on some of them. how do I sterilize the vermiculite without a microwave? I don't have one of those fancy pressure cookers with a gauge either, just a rocker on the lid.

couldn't I just buy a brand new bag of verm and trust it's sterile?

You sure can and if you are feeling a little noided you can moisten it with a 1:10 h2o2/water before applying I find placing premoistened verm, 50/50 gives much better results conpared to dry then moistening. I sometimes use the lids ring upside down as a guide to help apply it better also. GL

What is the bluish area at the base of the mushroom in the second pic? Is it a little brusing?
