I have a dunking question.. Any reason i cant just loosen them up in the jars they are in and throw some sterilized water in the jar? Sounds like i would accomplish the same thing...

Although i may advise others in a general way regarding all types of mushroom grows, and may even post question from other forums about growing "active" mushrooms, i only grow non-"active" mushrooms and edibles.

If your cake is fully colonized and contam free you could just inject a few C's of water into the jar but it's recommended to fully submerge the cake to maximize the re-hydration of the verm.

Bluebird, Just dunk your cakes for 18 hours in H2o2, one capful per every 500ml of water, they might bruise but this isn't a problem since they need to recover from the crumble prior to casing....
Defiantly try out casing your cakes, like I mentioned earlier it will be alot easier to fruit then cakes....

Just my opinion

This is bunk, don't dunk in peroxide, it's just going to weaken the mycelium. Weak mycelium doesn't fight contaminations very well.

Rinse cake in clean water, dunk in clean water, rinse in clean water, fruit.

If you don't use peroxcide in your water you can very well be in contam centeral and that is not something you want.... Had I not dunked in h2o2 I got struck by the mean green, had I, all clear...

And it's h2o2, not peroxcide which itself is hardly harmful to mycelium, i treat my casing layers with h2o2 all the time and I dont have problems, so how is what I said bunk? but this isnt a flaming thread so i'll leave it at that.

I apologize if I came off as flaming, honestly wasn't trying to come off that way. But I really do think you are confused, and stand by my statement. Using peroxide on a casing, to fight cobweb, is fine, that is where it shines. Dunking cakes or casings or anything else in it as a precaution is bunk and will do no good. Peroxide is useless against Trichoderma and most everything else besides cobweb.
