Monotub question..
    #14232612 - 04/03/11 06:45 PM (12 years, 9 months ago)

I finally figured out how to do my WBS jars like a pro, but I now am onto the step of fruiting these bad boys..

I plan to make a monotub like this: http://www.shroomery.org/10677/Monotub

I'm wondering what I should be using for the substrate and what I should be using for the casing layer..

I have a local hydroponics store, so something practical would be nice.. I don't like getting supplies off the internet.

thank you much. :smile:

go with a simple coir/verm/gypsum mix...cant get any easier then that


and cubensis dont need a casing so skip that step.

okay, cool.

I keep reading that the COIR is for casing.. and some people say its for the substrate..


Also, should I just go buy a bag of COIR/VERM/GYPSUM and mix it together equally? You say it's a simple mix, but I have no idea what is the CORRECT way to do it.. so a little help or a link would be nice..

Thanks again though, You are ALWAYS on these forums helping out.. and always prompt with the responses.. I love it.

just buy a few bricks of coir, make sure to read on it and be sure it does not say Trich added..


coco fiber, or coco coir


do a quick search for damion5050's coir tek..it works great.


edit: the link to damions tek is posted above
