Substrate Question
    #18566520 - 07/16/13 12:17 PM (10 years, 7 months ago)

Hey, guys. I am about to start my first cake experiment using brown rice flour, Perlite, and Vermiculite. However, the Lowes in my area only carries Perlite with Miracle Grow and Sta-Green Vermiculite. Are either of these okay to use or am I going to have to search wider?

Are there any added fertilizers listed on the bag?

You don't want anything with plant fertilizer.

sta-green verm is fine and will work great.

Miracle grow perlite usually or always has fertilizers, you dont want that. It ups the risk of contams in the chamber.

I used the Sta-Green vermiculite with no problems and I am also using the Miracle Grow perlite (which I didn't know had fertilizer, crap!).

I've had cakes fruiting for a few days without any problems so far but I didn't know I got the wrong type of perlite :sad:
