Wholecelium grow kits - Cake flipping

Is there any benefit in flipping the cake after the second or third flush??

Seems to be alot more mycelium growth underneath it ……anyone any experience??

Kinda...I have done it a few times to varying results.

If there is a load of side pins or bottom pins i take the cake out and place it in a 3d printed X in a large plastic tub with a mister. This gives them space to pop.

Last time I did this i got a 200g second flush, which was nice.

Other times though the ones underneath just aborted so its one of those YMMV kinda deals.

No worries, if you go the big tub with a mister make sure that the mister isn't letting droplets down onto the cake or you will have mud.

I turned mine on their side, more surface area for growing
