To case or not to case??

I started 5 1 pint popcorn cakes. I have put them into a fruiting chamber as cakes because i didnt have anything to case them with at the time.. since then they have pinned and one actually has an almost mature fruit on it..
1. I was wondering if it is wise to use popcorn as a cake?
2. Is it more suseptable to contams if i do leave it as a cake (due to being a whole grain as opposed to BRF)?
3. Could I case them after the first flush and get a decent harvest after that?
4. Can cakes that no longer produce fruits (either due to lack of water or nutes) be used as spawn for bulk substrait?

1.) grains in general do not go as neat "cakewise" as pf cakes, they tend to dry out rather fast and well they simply dont do as nice.
2.) is fully colonised, contams shouldnt be able to have a easy shot.
3.) dont do it, itll already be laden with couple germs from the air. if u wanna case, do it straight - dont do cakes first.
4.) you could, but, frst of the grains will, as said above, have some germs and whatnot already on it, therefor blow contams intoy our bulk and second if its dont producing, its pretty much done, wouldnt expect any good and healthy grow from that.
to sum it up: if you wanna case, or spawn to bulk, do it straight, dotn fuck around with fruiting them as cakes first. peace ohm
