i was making the mixture for the cakes and followed the instructions of 2/3 cup vermiculite with 1/4 cup wheat flour with 1/4 cup of water. Is the mixture suppose to become like a pasty dough? i looked through the pictures of peoples cakes and they look a little grainy with less wheat flour. I know this is a stupid question but you're suppose to put the vermiculite with the flour together and mix it in with water right? just making sure =) i'm still a noobie =(

You're supposed to use Brown rice flour, not wheat flour. I guess you didn't follow the TEK directions to the 'T'.
Throw it out and start over.

Go check this out....and follow it exactly!!! Get on the internet and go to Youtube. Do a search for "Let's Grow Mushrooms".
This is a four part series of the pf tek by Roger Rabbit. If you don't know who he is, he's a vet around here and very knowledgeable about this stuff. It's a very simple tek to follow and if you do, you will have success. These videos are the actual footage from his 2dvd set which you can buy. As mentioned above, throw out your cakes with the wheat flour or whatever you used. Just chalk it up to a lesson learned. Think, of it this way, it's better to realize a mistake this early in the game then to realize one later on down the road after you've put several weeks into your grow! If you have any more questions, check back. However, I strongly suggest reading as much as you can. Read, then read some more, and then read a little more, and when you think you have a good handle on things, keep reading. It will do nothing but help you get better at this hobby. Everything you need to know is here in the forums, FAQ's, or search engine. And, every question you're likely to have, has already been asked and answered a thousand times. Hey, I'm still a newbie so don't think i'm slammin on you. I'm not. I read for about two months on here about 4-5 hours a day before signing up and even starting my grow. Good luck and if you need some help, don't be afraid to ask. Just make sure and do yourself a favor of reading and studying!
