nice set, jokefox! your pretty good at this mushroom growing thingy....
with all due respect, perlite in the sub sounds dumb to me too. but at one time, growing actives on reptile bedding in a plastic tub sounded far fetched too.... but i would think big-n-chunky verm would be better than perl.

but fine verm holds more water than coarse verm.

If I have perlite, I use it up in my substrates/casing layers at about 10%. You dont have to leave anything out, throwing in perlite doesnt hurt at all, and it does make for a lighter fluffier substrate. Its just an additive like anything else, he only put 10% in, nothing stupid about it.

I don't see why adding perlite in the sub. would hurt anything (so long as the perlite was pasteurized).
Perlite is used in soil for aeration, vermiculite, water retention. Seems if your fruiting area has high humidity, perlite would be beneficial for obtaining a good moisture evaporation balance in ratio to your fruiting area's humidity.
But, if your area's "arid", vermiculite would be a better choice for substrate addition. I'v always used vermiculite for substrate addition because I prefer the slow evaporation of moisture vermiculite allots for over the rapid evaporation of perlite.

Nice, great observations brother. Did you end up getting any prints off any of those bad boys. Not necessarily looking to get one myself, just seems like it would have been a good idea; looks and sounds like you got some killer fruits.
