I made 7 quarts of WBS. I washed them till the water was clear. Then I soaked them in 1/4 strength coffee with gypsum for 24 hours. Then I heat them up to a simmer for 20-30 minutes. Then I Pressure cook them for 1 hour.
I use 250ml to 1 table spoon Karo for my LC. I pc that for 15 minutes.
I use a glove box, gloves, hair net, and face mask for doing injections. Always flame my needle between each use. I clean everything with alcohol.
I let the WBS colonize to 75% then shake.
Then I just case per casing101 Tek but I use MGMC instead of 50/50 mix. I used Monstermitch's tech for pasturizing casing. For more details on that see my grow log.
Then I fruit in 72F and 91%RH. I have a light on a timer that does 12/12. I think I misted the casing once. That's it. 
Thanks again all! C.H.

Kick ass flush man .... I hate making prints,with the exception of trading them off for other strains or if you aren't growing for a very long time I see no real reason to make them,just always clone your best fruit or make some lc and you will never run out of stuff to re start off with

This is why you isolate!

N2deepe thanks and I'm glad you've learned from my errors, but I have to say I'm definitely not talented. I'm not being modest I just want to dispel any illusions. Up to this flush I've had pretty poor success. Honestly I've just studied the living heck out of these boards and their archives. Then I worked really really really hard at this and still I failed in some manner or another. Each step of the way I would fail and try and learn from the failure. I've said it a million times experience is a cruel teacher but she's the best one too.
One step at a time Blutjager. I'm cool with making the prints. I sort of liked it actually. I think they are sort of pretty. I collect biologicals sort of. So the prints were actually the real reward for my work more than the flush itself. Though don't misunderstand I'm quite eager to chow down .
My cloning skills just plain stink. I'm working on it but so far I haven't had much success cloning. Now making an LC from a multispore syringe is another story. I think I have that pretty much down. Though I did have one contaminate recently. Anyhow I think after another 10 or so casings like this one I'll have a decent idea of how to treat a casing. Once I have a really good understanding of how to case properly and manage the moisture of the casings I'll refocus on Agar and cloning. I still toy with it but I haven't gotten super serious about getting it right. So far I just use it to check my LC for contamination and occasionally attempt to clone something. My only real success in that regard has been Shiitake. Which I still need to fruit...
Anyhow here are the prints.
  .
 
Thanks again everyone. The encouragement is really helpful and I appreciate it. This hobby really is lots of work if you want to get it right. Though I've found it to be a labor of love and I don't regret one second or one cent I spent on it.
For those of you curious about what I'm doing next, keep reading my grow log.
