Dear Anno,

I have been up late tonight researching your many posts, mostly doing research on casing. If you get a chance between school studies, could you please list your casing mix you will use in this test.

I found that you seemed to favor an even coir/verm/peat based potting soil mix, then adding either limestone, oyster shells, and or calcium carbonate. It seems at one time you liked a 10% mix of oyster shells and lime, then another it was 5%. I was wondering if you have settled in on an exact mix now or you still vary it depending on a certain situations.

My thinking as of now (would love your opinion) and with what I have available is that a good mix would be:

3 1/2 cups Coco Coir
3 1/2 cups Peat (all I have is Schultz brand peat)
3 1/2 cups Vermiculite
1 cup Oyster Shells
1/4 cup Calcium Carbonate

This would make a nice thin casing layer for 2 small kitty litter trays in my case.

Do you think I am too light on the calcium carb? I wanted to hold back some since there is oyster shell.

One last question is your thoughts on using the vermiculite layer in the bottom, and would it help to drill some small holes in the bottom of a casing pan to let it breathe just a tad. With a verm layer on the bottom and the holes its almost like an upside down giant PF jar :wink:

I really enjoyed the Ecuadors grow logs, and the Burma log. This search engine rules and thanks for all the information you have put here. I will be looking for more.

Any feedback is way much appreciated  :heart:

Dear Phoogle,

I still use this mix similar to what you wrote down.
I ceased to measure the ingredients exactly though since it doesn?t seem to matter much that the ratios are exact. So I simply guesstimate the ratios.
As for the calcium carbonate, again, I didn?t notice any major difference between using 5 or 10%.

Anno - I posted something abotu this earlier. If you would like some assistance (financially) getting further batches of mushrooms tested for potency, I'd be willing to contribute. I think that I'd personally like to see some potency tests on all the strains out there. Also, waht will your chromotography represent? Just psilocybin/psilocin ? I'm definatly interested in the amount of all tryptamines contained in the fruitbody, especially DMT. Thanks again, buddy.

The casings don?t fruit to well, I have harvested the first flush off 4 off them.
Let?s see how this develops, otherwise I will repeat the test on a later time when I can pull the grow through without the long pause.

That makes no sense, hehe. Are you saying this round is not fruiting well? I browsed through the posts but the one you replied to makes no sense as far as what you said.
