mycelial growth stopped when it hit casing

#1926158 - 09/17/03 08:02 PM (14 years, 7 months ago)

I cased some straw with coir colonized w/ hawks "super strain". When it hit the coir, ph of about eight, it totaly stopped there. The coir was about at max moisture content when I applied it and the ph might have been a little high but would that be enough to stop growth? What can I do to fix the problem next time?

Shelter me from the powder and the finger,
cover me with the thought that pulled the trigger.

How long has it been since you cased it?

You don't want the layer to wet. Wet enough so that when you squeeze a handfull, a little bit of water drops out. It could have stopped if this layer had max moisture.
