To Slice or to Crumble...
    #1283538 - 02/06/03 02:39 AM (21 years, 2 months ago)

I'm wondering if it's better to slice the mycelium or to crumble it when doing a casing?

just think about on which you earn more side that touches to your casing.

I would crumble with a sterile cheese grader. It would be more even and retain water better

First off, 3 days is nothing ive worked threw a straight week constantly only stopping for work, food, and on occasion a shit. And no i havnt tryed the cheese grader method, but you act like you need a cheese grater tek inorder for it to work, OF COURSE IT WOULD WORK i dont need "expierence with a cheese grater or whatever it is" its common sense. infact if i chewed it up with my teeth ate it bent down in the terrium and took a shit i bet it would still work so shut up and go play or something haha.

weird, i don't generally post advice on something I haven't tried myself. i have noticed that you love to, and quite often it is not very sound advice. BTW, a chees grater does work quite well, i would know (as opposed to believe).

edit: what is with you and your damn girlfriend telling everyone to shut up? fuck you. that really pisses me off. it's a discussion forum. nobody has to shut up and I don't believe your a damn admin/mod so, um, no.

poogrower, your days here are numbered unless you change your attitude, and fast.

you post wrong, bad advice. you have next to zero experience and almost infinite arrogance, and no respect for others. you flame people who enjoy this forum in a friendly way, AND you were stupid enough to post a picture of yourself on the shroomery's website (stored and archived).

lighten up. apologies are due very soon. i feel very sorry for you, and hope you make changes in your life.

First off i am not gonna apologize to some foreigner on the internet about me saying to use a cheesegrader because commense sense says it will work.
Second off i give perfect advise. If i didnt give perfect advice i think my ziplock bags would be empty, because my advice to others is from my knowledge of growing. You dont know the extent of knowledge on mushroom cultivation that i know, nor do you know the expierence level nor do you know the size projects because you have never been in my grow room have you? Im not going against you guys, im trying to share my knowledge to people who appreciate what i tell them. But its you who are the arragont ones. The ones who question me, the ones who bring up my gf, waste the server space over a cheesegrader etc are totally uncalled for, ignorant and or jealous. And who are you to know my life. And who cares if my picture is on my avatar? Thats my choice, not yours. And as for the change in my life, my life is going great if you really wanna know that much about me. I have a newely renovated house a car thats almost done paying for in july. I have hometheater system. A girl i love and is interested in my hobbies. Good trip buddie. Great shrooms. And im going to college in fall. this will be my last post for this subject. Bye

I haven't tried the cheesegrater method, however, unless you are going to spawn your brf/verm cakes into straw, compost or manure, its not needed to be in such small chunks.

You are trying to shoot for a level/even layer of colonized substrate, so you will achieve a uniform flush. THe best way to achieve this is by slicing the cakes into little saucers about 1/2 inch, or into four sections. Place this down and take another cake and fill in the gaps to make the layer as level as possible, without compressing it too much.

Then add you casing layer so its nice and even as well.
