Shoulf I case or not?
    #19105214 - 11/08/13 11:43 AM (10 years, 2 months ago)

So I'm on my first time attempting bulk. I took fully colonized brf cakes crumbled and mixed it in a bag with pasteurized verm coir and a little bit of coffee. Put it all in small foil trays put a top on poked holes n top  and left them alone. The substrate is now 100% colonized and I'm wondering if another layer of verm with a little bit of coir for a casing would be beneficial or should I fruit as is? They will be put in the sgfc tonight so if anyone could give me input it'd be greatly appreciated.

just fruit it as is, coir in your casing  is old school

I have actually come to prefer casing but not with coir I use the 50/50+ casing with peat moss vermiculite calcium carbonate and gypsum.

I plan on getting peat moss for my next bulk.  The only reason I was gonna add a little coir was to speed up the myc growth thru the casing layer. So right now I should go no casing layer then mist heavily then fan for a few minutes then put in direct sunlight for a few minutes then put in sgfc. Am I correct?

yes watch for beads of moisture  across the surface of your sub, that gives you your 100% humidity on the surface where it matters most, once it's not right across the surface miist away

Thank you both. I can use all the help I can get. I've been searching around but finding up to date info isn't always easy.
