Made a tray on 6/7 with a 50/50 casing.
    #14745409 - 07/10/11 12:58 PM (13 years, 6 months ago)

As the title says I made a tray with rye berries and a 50/50 coir casing. My question is when do I introduce it to fruiting conditions?

I'd wait until you see a handful of pins and then introduce to fruiting.

I got to jump in and say this...

You shouldnt be using coir as a casing material...
You should try using peat moss...
Coir is better used as a substrate...

We used to use coir like 7-8 years ago as a casing in 50/50's, and we found this its would cause "overlay" like symptoms.
I might be wrong, but this is from my experience... :shrug:

So I peeked on my tray and the casing layer is colonizing. Is this ok? Should I let it fully colonize all the coir then fruit? Or should I just fruit it now since its a mistake tray?

If it colonized the coir that you cased it with, just fruit it.  If it is cubensis, which I am assuming it is, you don't need to fruit with a casing.

But did it colonize it completely?

Of course, then there's the problem of eating vermiculite. On the bright side, it makes your poop and teeth glitter.  Just pretend it's christmas.
