Im just gonna straight case my myco bag with some poo then put some verm on top. Should I put this all in the casing "case" put seran rap over it then put it in a dark place untill it colonizes more? THen when it looks ready put it in sunlight and put the small rubbermaid in a large rubbermaid filled with perlite and 1" of water so then sun hits the water and it evaporates into the air creating a higher humidity? And then just put a few holes in the top of the larger rubermaid that has the small cased rubermaid in it? Does this sound good? Also when I put the smaller rubbermaid in the larger one should I take the ceran rap off so it can get the moister in the air better? ^^ im ready just tell me if this sounds good lol.. Also im going to microwave the poo becuase it worked for me just a few days ago when I spawned a seemingly failed cake into a larger container with microwaved poo in it. It seemed to work.. Any comments? Should I put verm on top of the poo when its 80% colonized gawd im such a newb

Why are you adding poo to the casing? That should only be used with bulk. I just use saran wrap; works fine. I think you're getting way too worked up about the humidity issue; a somewhat deep tupperware bin holds moisture fine at 70-75% in a 35% room rH with one mist a day. Just don't let the casing dry out -- you should be able to tell this by looking at it. More moisture just means a higher risk of contamination. I'd just use a single grow-bulb or something; I've read direct sunlight can be a bad thing. Any direct light could dry it out. I'd use coir instead of poo; less risk of trich and crap.

oki doki! why cant I just break up the mycellum lay it over some verm in a casing tray then put some poo over that and let it do its thing for a week while rapped in tin foil then put it in light and let it fruit? Or does poo not work for casing?

poo is a bulk substrate. It contains food for the mycelium to grow on. A casing layer does not contain any nutrients. It is just a medium for fruiting. If you want colonize some poo with your mycobag, then mix it up really good with the mycobag. This will create more inoculation points and it will colonize much more quickly. Just remember to pasteurize your poo first.
