Fruit communication???

I have a cake(rolled) with pins that developed many days apart. When the first fruit decided to break its veil and open, they all suddenly decided to do the same. Even the very small ones that are only days old. What is the communication going on here? I expected fruit to each open at their own pace. Is it the myc colony as a whole that is giving the signal for them to mature all at once? This also seems to be sending a signal to my other sets that are cased. They are now wanting to open and they are at least a week behind the cake as far as pinning goes and quite behind in development. This is going to be a problem if so, to cultivate batches to maturity, if they are all going lose their minds like this.

The fungi is a community, so, yea, that's normal.

Also... what am I supposed to do with this cake now. I read I re-dunk it for 24 hrs to rehydrate it... but what conditions do I put it under for its "rest period" and for how long, before re-introducing it into fruiting conditions? And what about the cased cakes when they are done with their first flush?
Thanks-

Don't need to wait. Re-introduce.
As far as casings go...

I let my trays rest for two or three days after flushing before running them underwater for an hour each (as opposed to allowing them to sit in still water) simply because the mycelium typically goes dormant for a short period after flushing and immediately dunking and reintroducing it into the fruiting conditions only allows it to further dry out for those same days of rest...
RR has said here and again that he typically lets his bulk substrates rest upwards of 4-5 days before re-hydrating and reintroducing fruiting conditions.

Don't mistake my tone for a "matter-of-fact" attitude. I'm just presenting what I believe to be correct, until I'm corrected... - How Myco-Curious Prepares Coir & Compost Substrates - How Myco-Curious Builds A Bulk Humidifier - How Myco-Curious Builds An Automated Greenhouse ------------------------------------ figgusfiddus said: Keep in mind that inoculating or whatever in front of a flow hood won't help your bad substrate, your bad inoculant, your bad sterile procedure, etc. etc. etc. It's not a +3 flowhood of magic, it's just a tool.
