I'm looking for comments, opinions, ideas, etc. for fruiting only one cake efficiently and effectively. I mean, it's obvious I don't need a 10 gallon tank here. . .

Perlite and any small container; i.e. coffee can, cut-up bottle, small rubbermaid/sterlite tub.
Or you could get a small plastic bowl and make a mini casing, and just put a ziploc bag over that or something to keep in the humidity. You can really get creative with this.

Just use any small container that allows light to enter from the top.
Use perlite humidification.
Fan regularly. An air pump for a fish tank can be used to help with FAE.
Just go to a department store an look at the containers for storing food. I'm sure you will find something suitable.

any small bin with a top will do. Leave enough room for mushies to grow up and outwards.
Pond water didnt work as well as you thought, eh?

Thanks for the ideas. This is my first grow, so having only one cake to fruit kinda shot holes in my original plans, and now I don't really know how I want to do this. I still have a few days to work on it. I don't see any primordia yet.

technically you can throw that cake into the fridge and get some others going if you want. You're really in no rush to do anything.,

Or if you haven't already opened the jar, you could throw together a makeshift glove box and use that jar to spawn some grain or something.

This is true, A glove BAG is described here by agar. http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/4947987 (If agar had a nickle for each time I posted one of his links LOL)
She could also inoculate an LC with a piece of mycelium from the cake.

Thanks for the link! Glove box is covered. Now, can you dumb down inoculating "an LC with a piece of mycelium"?

follow the instructions to make a liquid culture (LC), take a piece of mushroom tissue or mycellium from your jar and in your glove box transfer the myc to the LC. Incubate til its ready and use on your jars.
