I like Rye Grass and Verm but wanna start using Poo

So I've been doing Ecuadors in Rye Grass seed and Pure verm casing. I know Coir should be used, but I don't. IDK Why? I still get 20+ pins per little tub (not sure exact size [bout the size of a shoebox] i think we put a good 2 to 3 quarts of spawn per tub to be fruited) and they turn into monsters bigger than my hand (have pics but no way to upload yet sorry).
Anyways, I'll be moving up to Pans soon and I figured this would be a good time to learn to upgrade to manures.
My prep is using quart jars, I use 1 1/4 cup of rye grass seed, and 5/8 cup water, like RR's instructions...
Now my question is; Do I add the Manure to the substrate ingredients I put in my jars before PC or do I add it to the vermiculite i case with?
Thanks, any and all advice will be taken golden!
Also Pics of the Ecuadors will be here soon

Don't add it to your spawn jars. You typically spawn rye or whatever into manure/compost.

sweet this was the answer i was looking for!
I think I will continue with manure casing, I've read that cut up wheat straw works well with it but i can't seem to find a good recipe for Shit on Straw casings.
... back to the searching feature for another few hours ...

Farms/ horse ranches. Farm owners love to give away that pile of horse manure that just seems to just keep building.

As for the manure, don't pc it, pasteurize it. I use pillow cases and let them sit in 160 degree water for 3 hours then hang to dry for field capacity.

Should I mix the broken down spawn with this said mix and then lay in the tray, or layer the bottom of my tray with said mix then lay spawn over?
Thanks again everyone for advice! Will indeed give back to you guys when I have succeeded. Don't know how long it will be at that point, but the day will come!
As for my plans in the future -
I will Pasturize at said temp, and make bulkin substrate. I think my casing will just continue to be Vermiculite but I'll add a wee bit of Oyster Shell to help out the pH level.

Mix together evenly so you can really see when they are truly finished.

oh oh oh!! one more question.
So far, I am only capable of making prints into syringes.
I know.. I know... I should already be at agar.. and I do plan so because of some iffy prints i was traded,
but Is it acceptable to make pan syringes?
only reason I haven't moved up to agar is because I haven't been out to get agar agar powder or any petri dishes/baby jars.
I wanna kinda save me a step and a drive, yet keep the contams to a decent minimum.
Will I be safe to do so?

Personally I mix and not layer also its perfectly fine to make a Pan syringe,did you hear otherwise? Pans are basically the same as cubes other than they need manure to fruit and a casing layer and lots and lots of fresh air exchange

You can use the mix you want to use.
I do Damon5050 coir tek and add a couple of as much as i can grab of Hpoo and the same amount of wheat hay.
If you cant find Hpoo or wheat straw ( like me ) check the marketplace. I get mine from one of the members here.
