You're doing something else wrong then if they're not going into their second flush. DUNK THEM ANYWAYS BTW.

I did dunk them and they haven't flushed since... you think I should dunk again???
I've done invitro b4 and had multiple flushes and i'm doing the exact same thing I've done in the past (the only thing I could think of is air exchange as I used a diferent drill bit last time)
RR said that sometimes invitro's only give 1 flush, could it just be the strain that i'm using?
I don't see how it could be anything else, because I did get a good initial flush.

How long did you dunk? What does your terrarium consists of?

I'm not using a terrarium for these cakes... I just put them back into the jars. I have a terrarium, but it was occupied at the time so I didn't put these cakes in it.
do you think putting them in at this point would be beneficial?
thanks

ok, i will then... last questions though:
re-dunk and roll?
and as for the ones that started growing invitro again:
should I pick off the aborts and dunk and roll again? or just let them grow out?
appreciate it.

Pf kinda sucks invitro. Hell invitro sucks. You'll get better results fruiting it in a $20 worth of materials Terrarium.

Yeah, lack of air flow. Lower CO2 levels are a primary pinning trigger.

ok... so what should I do?
a) place cakes into a terrarium even though they've been invitro doing nothing for a month. (and should I re-dunk N roll?)
b) increase airflow by opening them once a day?
c) just make tea and start over.
thanks

1. 5 inches of well drained perlite NOT MIRACLE GROW PERLITE 2. Drill 1/4th inch holes all over while still maintaing 100% rH 3. Invest in a Analog Hygrometer. 4. Leave lid ajar 5. Mist and fan at least twice a day UNTIL YOU SEE PINS, THEN STOP. MIST BEFORE FAN 6. Wait and Harvest.

Because it contains nutrition. Mold/Contamination/Bacteria lives on it.

Regular shroom tea, bryanbzl or mycelium tea? Personally I wouldn't drink mycelium tea.

I checked the ingredients on my miracle grow perlite, and it's fine. It's just perlite, haven't had any problems.
-------------------- My advice is to find those things that give pleasure and do them often without too much attachment and relax and wait for the show to end. -Icelander- I like free markets and all. Truly I do, at least in general, but there needs to be some kind of oversight in recognition of sustainability. Life works the same way, on a bunch of sustainable systems. Why not honor what made us what we are and take some lessons? Nature FTW! ~dill705~

For the record, I've done this with a few spent cakes. It works, but very mild effects. More for the "waste not want not" crowd than anything.
To those concerned about taste any shroomy tea...throw a packet of hot cocoa mix in with it.

The guy I know thought it tasted exactly like cranberry juice. It was strained. People need to lighten up. No one is suggesting that you just brew up cakes. Rather, if you have an unproductive/exhausted cake you can get something from it.
Just make sure to boil it in cranberry juice. Just straining doesn't seem to work.
