Thank you all so much! So my two cambo cakes were ready before anything else, i picked them last night and...162 grams wet. I do not think that's too bad for a first time off two cakes, first flush. I will be going for bigger fruits now that i kinda know what i am doing. Thanks to every single poster on this site, from day one to now, i have read all the archives, and everything posted each day.
Without this site, nothing would have been possible. Thanks again.

7 inch monster on the first flush. Wet weight by himself, 19 grams.

Pretty clump. Small but EXTREMELY POTENT!

This is what my cambo cakes looked like before i picked.

I wanted to pick because it was just time to pick, ya know? 4-7 grams per cake? You sure about that? Every other cake I have growing right now is going to give me simular weights. I am doing things a lil different, but 4-7 grams sounds really little. Use worm castings in your PFTek, I think thats the difference. Plus dunk and roll.
Thanks for the good vibes. Cant wait for my casings to fruit.

Just wanted to add in five cakes, two cambo, two south american, one costa rica=462 grams wet, 39 grams dry. Would you say that is good for a firt timer, first flush. Everything was dunked and rolled again, so we shall see. I can not wait for my casings to pin, argh, its driving me mad!

Thats quite good.
Actually usually a PF cake usually yeilds people 2-5 grams (dried of course). Most people that is. Of course, most people who grow on cakes are new and still learning.. I've seen half ounces come off of 1/2 pints with people who can do them right. All in all though 5-7 grams per cake is very good (and I think the small side of average for experienced cakers), and above that is excellent. You came in about 7.8/cake on average...
Beautiful looking cake by the way..

I used to average between 6 to 9 dry grams per half pint cake...per flush.

Ahh shucks, you guys are just buttering me up..tehehe. I feel like a lil school girl.
Ok, not really!
Thanks, i have alot to learn, I know that cakes and cubes are just a stepping stone to the big stuff. We shall see how my casings go for the first time, then go from there.
BTW, anyone done F+, i inoculated multispore two days ago, and have 10-15% growth already. ITS INSANE!

Sorry to hijack this thread but assuming that average is around 5g per flush per 1/2 pint PF-Tek cake, would there be much difference in dry weight per flush for a 50/50 verm/coir cased 1/2 pint PF-Tek cake???
edit: spelling!!

no hijack here, thats a good question that i am not experienced enough to know the answer to.
My guesstimant would be 15-30 grams dry from a good sized casing, per flush. It just really depends on so many factors with casings. I see these great looking pinsets on peoples casings and then later realize they did it in a lil pin tuppaware containor. If I can get 18-25 grams dry from my casings, i will be a very very very happy camper.

Cassings make more weight. Im not acctually sure how much, it all depends on the cassing layer, and I think some shrooms do better for casings than others.
