I wonder why it's colonizing faster? I mean when people spawn to bulk they sometimes use a 50/50 verm/coir and the mycelium from the cakes just takes over so I'm pretty sure it would work. And if it's colonizing faster I find it hard to imagine that no one has thought of this before...

I mean you're not reducing any of the nutrient content; the BRF amount stays the same. You're just substituting half of the vermiculite you would normally add with peat moss or coir. So the moisture content would be the same...maybe a little less "airy" but still on the safe side I would think.

Plus if you just use the PF-Tek to fruit (without casing) then the Coco Coir would hold water better in the cake during fruiting than the vermiculite would.

I think this really has a lot of potential.





You're both wrong and full of yourself.  This has been thought of before, and there is no way coir hoods more water than vermiculite




i think youre full of yourself. re-read everything i wrote. i never said i tried coir. never even used it. i said peat moss. and it does work. ive used it myself and had results. do what u want with that info. i dont really give a fuck.

i once did the wbs instead of brf and did great but make sure to simmer the seeds first and dry them and water will b different bc the seeds will hold watch so less u absorbe but i bleded them after a long soak then a good simmer and it worked fine

I have had my biggest flushes using the following:
1 part water
2 part verm
1/2 part brf
1/2 ground up coir
Gypsum

My recipe I use for (30) 1/2 pint jars:
6 cups water
12 cups verm
3 cups brf
3 cups coir
1 tbsp gypsum

Since i was substituting the food portion of the recipe. I wanted to keep the ratio consistent.  I used this recipe growing Ecuador and south American strain, which I have produced from my own spore prints. I definitely noticed a  difference in weight produced using this tech compared to the original ratios, but it didn't increase the potency from what I noticed.
