Just wondering if a total newb managed to colonize 10 out of 10 jars 100% with no contams, would it be worth it for him to do a dunk and roll?, the brf cakes are nice and wet still, maybe wait till next flush?

Still in jars., would there be a risk of a contam doing it?, or should "he" just thank the gods for such a good 1st grow and accept a smaller fruit? (thanks for reply)

My first two cake grows, back in the day (25 cakes in total) never contam'd either, at least not until they gave a few flushes.
A friend of mine who started with me, was a lazy bugger and also very impatient and had to trash 20 jars because he inoculated some while the jars were too hot, and then didn't sterlilize the needle between innoculations because he thought it was too much work, so or they didn't grow or they contam'd
I think that if you managed to make ten cakes and none contaminated you must have a decent sterile technique and a cleanish house, so you shouldn't have any problems dunking and rolling.
Good job.

Its definatly worth dunking and rolling, colinised cakes are resistant to contams, its still good to be clean when working with them though.
wash your hands with anti-bacterial soap when handling them. Was them under the tap and get the dry verm layer off them submerge them in a pot of water for 24 hours then roll in dry verm and pop in the fruiting chamber.
Lack of moisture in the cakes can cause slow pin devepment and small shrooms.
