Definitely, give it some time and you'll be ready.
2 things you will notice, don't worry about em, just roll with it and remember for next time..

1. It will be hard to get an even pinset on that sub... It has many peaks and valleys that I can tell and is not very even... You want the substrate as even as possible, this will better your chances of an even pinset and getting fat, evenly distributed flushes. Pick em as they come off this time... It's a tricky number getting an even pinset... I'm still workin on it :smile:

2. Aluminum foil... The sub will be directly on the aluminum foil, this will cause some weird colors where the myc is in contact. I've only made the mistake once of using foil or aluminum to hold my myc. I don't exactly know what it is, but it looks like contams and is scary when you see it. You can look into it on here, but I just steer clear of aluminum... If you want to use aluminum, line the inside with plastic...

That's all, now go get em Gipper

The myc of certain strains can motobilise the aluminium (eats it)to the point there can be hole in your tray.As far as i know, there is no metal tranfered to the myc.

Its just a pain having holes in your tray, i guess that some pins could form on the bottom and maybe some moisture escape fromt he substrate.
