Hi every one!! ive been around the forums for a while but never made a post. any way I have 6 1/2 pint jars colonizing with B+. right now there under my dresser untill I get my incubator set up. but im kinda worrid I messed up when I was sterilizing cause I forgot to put tinfoil over the jars but they still had tape over the holes do you think they will be okay? also im thinking of casing two of the 1/2 pints with a 50/50 mix of peat and verm. good idea? or should I just cake all 6 sense its my first time? thanks for any help!

Hope to see an answer to this... I am wondering how important the boiling step is since I don't have a pressure cooker & the microwave technique is said not to be a good idea.

hey and welcome to the shroomery!
your cakes should be fine unless the tape came off when they were sterilizing.
as for casign , it can be just as easy as cakesprovided u have the right supplies and conditions. id suggest u experiment by casign half and fruitng half as cakes. or cas 2 like u planned.

Im casing half my first grow and doing cakes on the other half, that way, if i totally fuck up on one, i got at least the other half to try and rescue.
Has your B+ fucking grown like wild fire, mine has compared to everything else. So far the slowest grower has been my golden teacher.

Yeah the boiling step is pretty important I dont have a PC either so here is what I did.
and yea my B+ are going pretty fast actually. I thought B+ was suposed to be a real slow colonizer.
