Hey Gang,
So I took a couple of spent cakes, crumbled them and put them with some unsterilized substrate into a couple of my house plants, and low-n-behold I have a couple of friendlies coming up. Any suggestions on what to do next. They are just small pins and I am wondering how they will do without a high humidity environment. Anyone been successful at this?

It's the same process, keep the soil nearly saturated with as fine a mist as possible with a light fanning afterwards.
I wouldn't recommend it in the future though because if, for whatever reason, the mycelium takes off again and begins to colonize the new substrate you'll end up with a dead plant as it suffocated out.

Would be cool to see a time lapse of that. On that subject... who does one go about making a time lapse?

I just found my digi camera and those pins have pretty much dried up. I am wondering if I should put some sort of plastic bag over them next time as I live in a really dry and currently warm climate. Keep you posted on any new findings.
