Casing Questions
    #19041986 - 10/27/13 06:27 PM (11 years, 2 months ago)

So I am going to pplay around with a popcorn grow as my first time trying to cultivate edible mushrooms. I have some verm, and some spanish moss laying around so Im thinking I want to try casing them. My question is, can I use spanish moss, if so is it the top layer? or should I just go straight verm?

Casings are typically just straight vermiculite. Sure you can use other stuff. But verm is cheap and works great dont fix what aint broken :wink:

I heard adding moss(pete moss in particular but I have spanish so I wanna use it) can make it more contam resistant if you pasturize it.

Yes pasteurizing will help a ton if you know how to do that properly:
