I have some cakes that i left for the weekend and they wee fine but when i can back there was a ton of mushies with black heads i assume that they got to much moisture. should i pick them or will they perhaps revive themselves. on another note the cakes that have bluing are they going to flush again or is there a way to get them revived thanks AAA

Are they fully grown? Are the veils torn? Maybe it's just spores. Rub a cotton swab over it and see.

If they are fully grown and the cap is tilting upward then its spores.

i think those are aborts, i have a few too, and my guess is i made them abort by misitng too much. i didnt think i had any pins cuz they were soo tiny, but aparently they were there and i killed em. do they look like this?
sorry for the shitty pictures, my macros been acting funny lately, its having trouble picking up tiny little blackheads when its got that nice bright perlite in front of it

Dunk them for 24 hours once harvesting the flush, the re-roll in verm.
Cakes can flush several times, i recently read of someone just harvesting there 6th flush.
Generaly, when cakes are spent, they wont hold themselfs together or they contam

the blue does not go away as far as I know, I don't think it fucks up the potency any or at least not much, there's nothing you can really do about it, those bastards bruise so easily if you apply enough pressure just to hold one between two fingers, you're gonna bruise it. Just try to hold it at the very base of the stalk and nowhere else, at least that way the bluing is contained in one area.

My cakes blue like craizy, usually after misting. Its weird for the first 4 days no bruising, i started getting worried as all previous cakes had bruised, then a few days later, blue!!
It could be a sign that your humidity is too low?? Verify your conditions are right as lack of humidity can sometimes cause them to bruise.
But yeah, the slightest touch and mine bruise.

well i have 5 inches of perlite with 16 cakes 8 are double stacked and 2 of them are sliced(just as an experiment). i don't have drip gaurd cause RR tek said it wasn't nessisary. so i fan and mist the walls on bout 5 times a day. half of my cakes are in full blown flush over 20 on one cake. others nothing and their right next to each other don't get it. i have a petco digital humidity tester located about 3 inches off the perlite and it reads in the 80's usually unless the temp drops then it rises. what am i doing wrong hell what am i doing right?

Your humidity meter could be off, you want a good analogue one that u can calibrate.

i went thru 4 hygrometers b4 i found one, that either read accurately, or lies to me and tells me my humidity is 99%, but i think its right, cuz if i take the lid off and fan it'll drop down to about 97% two of my cakes are blue, in a thumb and index finger print shape from the obvious.
im also about to dunk two of my cakes that flushed out, and armyabe, its all good that they arent all flushing at the same time, i guess when you dunk after each cake flushes, sometime you have to do them individually. the ones that arent flushing will come around. mine that didnt start heavy, are now flushing 10X better than my early ones did.
