I looked in the glossary and didn't see the term MAOI. What is it?
I know it doesn't pertain to this thread but I was wondering...

At the risk of sounding stupid here i go, I've been looking at pictures and I've noticed every ones terrariums have some kind of medium on the bottom, some times white some times looks like dirt. I was just going to put my rice Patty's on a wire mesh to keep them off the floor of my terrarium, and use a ultrasonic humidifier. will this still work?

Newbie Question...
Q.Using PF Tek, Dunk then case or case then dunk?
My understanding is that dunking helps the cake know its time to fruit. However, if you are making a casing you want it to grow with the casing then fruit. ??
A. No clue, but I'm sure a lots of folks do

Well, threads like this are why I have almost no posts; which is the point, I guess. I'm a little bit experienced with growing, but this thread answered (or pointed me in the right direction) many things for me.
Here's a question: My half-pint cakes are colonizing twice as fast as expected. That's a good thing, right?

California, Georgia, and maybe one other state I think have laws against spores. If you were really dedicated to getting spores sent to you you could set up a PO box in an adjacent state that doesn't have those laws.
Or if you have friends in another state that wouldn't mind having the spores shipped to them from the vendor, and then shipping them on to you...

Nope, spores are illegal in the state of California and Georgia by state statute.
Edit: Aha, and idaho. Thanks agar, totally forgot that one.

Q: I've read/imagined that condensation(moisture) on the walls of my terrarium(fruiting chamber) is a good sign that I have enough humidity. IS THIS TRUE?
A: No. Condensation is an indicator of differing temperatures. When you get a glass of ice water and it gets condensation on the outside of it, does that mean your house is at 95% relative humidity? NO. It just means their is 'SOME' humidity in the air and that the glass is cooler than the air surrounding it.

Actually, one can use(and re-use) spawn bags quite well without an impulse sealer. Think duckttape or masking tape and get creative.

Q: Help! Some of my cakes get really really stuck in their PF jars, and no matter how much I bang them, the only way I can get them out is by actually tugging them out.... which sometimes pulls the cakes apart. Some are even so bad I can only get them out by cutting the cake in half... they still fruit but not as much as the intact cakes. What do I do!??!! A: Being a noob, I'm rather curious about that myself... any takers on this one?

I didn't see this one on here, perhaps Magash or someone can answer this age old question?
Q: If a jar has a contam in it, should I just throw the ENTIRE jar away and buy a new one, or is there a way to empty it, and 100% sterilize it for re-use?
