What to "roll" cakes in?
    #5533319 - 04/19/06 11:35 AM (17 years, 9 months ago)

Is dry vermiculite the preferred substance to roll a cake in after dunking? What benefit comes from rolling a cake, why not just put it in the FC after it has been dunked? thx

You're supposed to roll in dry or slightly damp verm. If using dry, make sure to mist onto the cakes afterwards. I believe dunking and rolling is used to keep the cake hydrated as much as possible, and create a microclimate(almost like a casing) for the mushrooms to grow. You could just put the cake in the FC as-is, but I believe it could possibly lose more moisture this way. D&R seems to work wonders over regular cakes.

rolling in verm helps the cake pin all over as well = more shrooms per cake, try it it works good!

Cool thanks guys. I've got 8 cakes, I think I will dunk them all, roll 4, and leave 4 unrolled just to see if there's any growth difference.
