HUH??
Dude,,,the removel of the outer layer of the cakes is causing this "NOT" the darn paper towel,,,get over it. It is simply for humidity and to keep the cakes moist. Must i grow one out for you on the plastic with no napkins to prove it???

Actually I think this is a great idea...
Mushrooms are 90% water. If they have a good water resource to draw on they will grow bigger. I think the paper towel would have to play a big part as well.

Nice big caps there Nilla. Props. I wonder if doing this the "normal" way would produce just as much fruits but smaller.
ex.
30 fruits 1 gram each or 2 fruits 15 grams each

ray40cal said: B4B cakes are the shiznit.. Why does everyone boast about bulk over cakes so much?
because bulk is the ONLY way to go. trust me ive done my fair share of cakes when i started. and like i said i still do them cause they're dependable and an easy way for me to obtain prints.
have any of you guys who are saying "oh cakes are the shit" even tryed bulk? if so more than likely you've failed at it due to contams or something else minor and reverted back to cakes and now your all on this big cake bandwagon.
granted, if your going to do cakes this method looks to give you some monsters. but enough with this "cakes are the shiznit"
-the pinsets and end results are unmatchable with bulk-

Never tried bulk. Only been growing for a few weeks and done casings and cakes thats it. I plan on doing bulk, in fact I just bought a 64 qt. sterilite. Undoubtedly you will get more fruits from one cake spawned to bulk than you would off of several plain cakes. To be honest I'm afraid I'll phuk up the bulk project some way. My resources and experience are very limited right now. I got lots of reading to do before i can feel comfortable doing bulk.

Ok,here is the three cakes ready for there second flush. They have been treated in the same matter again.
Also,the second pic is of five new cakes that have been scraped and i also put two of em straight on the plastic to see what happens. Kinda dumb but,i just wanna see what it does.

Did you see how those stacked 1/2 pint cakes fruited? The PE, I forgot who posted it, but I think it's in this thread.
I wonder what would happen if you stacked your 1 pint scraped cakes?

I think it would be awesome to make a totem poll out of cakes. Turn an entire closet into a grow chamber and have totem polls of like 20 cakes each somehow braced together where they can't fall. Omg a shroom tree! Might need some scaffolding.

well, those are some nice flushes. But over an ounce for 2 pints cakes isn't monumental. That's still about 7ish grams per half pint. That's pretty common nowadays. I still think that the size of your fruits have more to do with the size of your cakes and not the scraping. Not that the scraping isn't helping with the pin set on a bare cake, because it probably is. But that's not what you're saying is going on here. You're saying that the size of the fruits is because you scraped them. I think that you may get fruits quicker if you just carved like four rings with a knife all around the cake instead of scraping the entire outside off. Like 1/4-1/2 inch cuts. I would think you would have more pins forming around those deep cuts than taking the entire surface off. Something you may think about trying if you're into the scraping thing.
Nice flushes though. definitely some honkers there.

Looks good nilla!
Can I ask that in order for your experiment to work properly could you put the two cakes that are sitting on plastic in another tub with no paper towel? These ones are still in contact with the towel and able to wick moisture from it therefore your results will be flawed.
A side by side comparison of two tubs, one with cakes sitting just on plastic and one with cakes sitting on paper towel, birthed at the same time, would be a good way to achieve a definitive result on whether the paper towel is helping them to grow a lot bigger or if it's just the scraping alone.

What?! You can't just quit. Stick with it mate, and if you prove everyone wrong you'll gain respect from them and massage your ego at the same time.
If you are challenging everyone to a cake-off then you have to stick around, at least for long enough to see it through to the end.
Don't just give up in the face of adversity, that'll get you nowhere in life.

OK Shroomites. Everybody tell Nilla we are sorry for picking at him. I'll start by saying "Nilla I'm sorry for coming across like an ass to you with my first post." Like I said I have seen your tek before with great results for cakes. I am not knocking it, at all. With no buts. Don't give up on the Shroomery.

Dude, don't let the haters get you down. It seems a lot of people online just have very poor social skills and are unable to have civil discourse.
