Alright i have 9 fully colonized jars just sitting around and i was wondering if i crush them up with some wet verm and then spread them on the bottom of one of my coolers and then put a layer of verm on top would try grow?

My cakes are now starting to produce some nice looking little pins getting bigger everyday so thanks for everyone here for all of your help. Rock on my brotha's :cool:

First hydrate the vermiculite to field capacity. It is field capacity when you pick it up and it doesnt drip but its 100% hydrated meaning it is wet. Then bake the vermiculite for 45minutes at 400. Let it cool outdoors. Then once cool rehydrate it to field capacity with distilled water. Then mix in your grain. This will drastically increase your yields.

I was just wondering, instead of just fruting cakes, could you follow the same procedures for fruiting myco bags?
That is, could you just open the colonised jar lid, take out the dry verm, soak it, put it back on top of the cake in the jar, wrap the jar in aluminium foil and brith it that way?
Im sure it would contribute to an increased yield but would like to see what you guys think

no need at all for that procedure.

at most just take your verm and bake it dry at 300 for 10 minutes to dry it out so that it works properly.

after baking, moisten.

that's too much work for absolutely no reason.
