Tweaking Casing Recipe - Suggestion wanted!
    #6425901 - 01/04/07 07:48 PM (17 years, 2 months ago)

My current casings are usually a 50/50+ basically Agar's way. Typically now, if I were to tell someone else how to do it I'd.

4 quarts sunshine peat
4 quarts horticultural verm.
1/2 quart coco coir (hydrated)
5-7 teaspoons hydrate lime to get ph to 8ish can be more sometimes
9 tablespoons oyster shell flour
9 tablespoons crushed oyster shells

I've been pretty happy with it, except for when I mixed a batch with too much coco coir almost had overlay. I'd like to try adding some gypsum as I have some now to my mix and would like other suggestions to try for my mix. I've heard gypsum at about a tablespoon or two per quart of mix?

I am pretty satisified with the performance and have made this mix almost 2 years now and want to maybe just try something else. I definately am going to try a batch with no coir as I think it may help the casing layer hold up better in later flushes.

Thanks in advance for your opinions & ideas!
