Title: stimulating BRF cakes for a second flush.
Post by: MT on November 25, 2008, 04:50:56 PM
 Hey anyone,
       After I have harvested my first flush of mushies, how do I cause my cakes to produce additional flushes?

Just leave them in your FC.  you can do an additional dunk and roll inbetween flushes if you choose to, this will rehydrate your cakes.

Thanks to everyone. this is my first question since I registered on this sight. I have six BRF cakes of PF classic that are almost ready to harvest. I am also currently colonizing six jars of the Tasmanian strain. I am looking forward to studding the PF classic in the next couple of weeks. Can't wait.

One of the bags that it was in ripped so I threw it in a bin with thick saran wrap loosely over the top.  The substrate is 50/50 straw/dung, with 250 grams of ground up mimosa hostilli's root bark. I got around 6-7 good flushes outa the doodie cake.

Thanks for the photos PW. Thats pretty much what mine ended up looking like. About twenty-five off my first flush. I sampled four of them over the holiday. Damn, this is quite an amusing hobby I've stumbled onto.
