My buddy just finished dunking his cakes, should he sterilize the vermiculite before he roll's the cakes in it and double end cases? If so he was thinking microwave for five minutes

if you microwave vermiculite be very carefull as it IS rock, and will melt the hell out of MOST if not all microwaveable containers. I highle recomend baking it in a covered tray at around 250 degrees for a couple hrs.

Well for one, fully colonized cakes are pretty hardy and generally can fight off contams fairly well. And two, vermiculite comes sterile in the bag. So HC is right, no need to sterilize it.
If you do however, microwaving it is totally fine, and I'd recommend either 2 sessions of 5 min, or 3 sessions of like 2-3 mins. I've used plastic and glass containers, and oven bags. So long as the containers claim to be microwave safe, they won't melt. Or at least none of the plastic ones I've used have.
::EDIT:: just read in that other post that dry verm may be too metallic, so if you do nuke it, make sure it's moist at least.
::EDIT EDIT:: dude.. your girlfriend looks like total jailbait.

Freshly opened bags are sterile, once opened if sealed immediately then the bag should be good to go until emptied. But if in doubt, (left partially opened at sometime) then by all means sterilize!

the only time I have ever had a contam was when trying out stupid substrates. I never sterilse verm, or perlite, or anything other than my spawn. I just use peroxide water for anything that needs water.

i think i would not put it in there dry ,wet it down good first before the microwave and go alittle longer un less you use dry verm for the roll method ,i dont mess with cakes,but i think it could get real hot with out the water,, but ya in the bag it should be clean , thay make it like rice crispys , that take the rock mica and super flash heat it and it puffs

..I'm not exactly sure. I don't understand why he said ouch.. It looks good to me. Some healthy new fuzz growing out from in b/t the bits of vermiculite. Hmm.. maybe he's refering to how it appears grey in the picture. But i think that's just weird effects w/ the camera right? If it's actually grey in real life, you've got a problem. If it's a nice healthy white fuzz, you're straight.

Alright, good good. Keep it in around 95% humidity and give it lots of FAE, and it'll be pinning soon.

Either you guys are not seeing what I'm seeing or the camera lighting is playing tricks because it looks like trich all over (the Mean Greenie), hopefully it's the lighting.
