I plan on using a new setup as a terrarium, i will be using a chesterdrawer that has been painted on the inside and waterproofed, i have plexiglass on the top forming a pretty tight seal. i plan on doing rye jars spawned with wheatstraw and cased, i was wondering what height do your average casings get? is the depth of a drawer going to be enough?????

For a chest of drawers. I'd say you'd need two drawers for each 'level/layer of casings. So a 4 drawer set up would give you roon for 2 rows/layers of casings.
or about 18 inches of heightfor a casing -including the casing and container height. OR 12-14inches ABOVE the top of the casing container.

I think it depends on the strain. I've seen some mushrooms that grows the length of the grower's forearm, and I've seen some that are as small as a lighter. What strain are you growing?

... i believe that it does have a lot to do with the strain itself, in terms of a general height, but each mushroom receives different amounts of nutrients, being in constant competition with those around it... and loop, i definitely remember ours being larger than a lighter... at least twice the size often, a bic lighter is only about four inches tall...

Nice sized shroom youve got there hamurabi !
You should try Orissa's, they grow very large although I haven't had any dinner plate sized caps.. YET !
Watch Lord of the rings while you are SOBER ! If you take shrooms you will loose alot of the meaning of the film as the storyline is quite complex !
I hope you enjoy the film, I did !

Substrate-Birdseed spawned into wheatstraw Any recommendations on what strain i should use if looking for shorter caps? I know most vendors tell you the characteristics but i would like some input from you guys on this one, i've thought of trying B+, creepers, ecuadors or maybe some from thailand...
