Would loose coconut fibre substrate also be good for this? If I was to weigh it out to 650 gr?

Is there a difference between the ones that are used for terrariums and for gardening?

the loose coco fibers usually dont hold water as well as the hull/husk powdered bricks do but they still work.  you may have to re hydrate more than usual but it'll work.  :super:

Quick question about gypsum.
Where I live, I cannot find gypsum, at least not horticulture gypsum.
The only thing I find is construction gypsum. Is there any difference? Can I use that one instead?

How much substrate does this recipe produce and how much do you think I would need for a 54 quart monotub? Going to do rye grain spawn. How much of that would you recommend? Thank you in advance.

Usually 9-10quarts total or whatever the label says on the packaging.

1 whole brick to 4-6 quarts of spawn in 54qt tub sounds good.

Hi guys,

My thanks to Spitball for this informative procedure.

I'm an old hippy noobie.  Please bear with me.  I have a Sterilite 1933, 32 quart tub.  I'm planning to transfer 10 1/2 pint BRF jars to bulk substrate.  That's 2.5 quarts.

Spitball's tek seems to produce about 8 quarts of substrate.  For a 1:2 ratio of spawn to substrate. I only need 5 quarts.

Can I simply place the remaining substrate in a zip-lock bag in the refrigerator until I need it again? If so, for how long?


Much thanks,

Tom

yup, you can store coir/verm for a few weeks with no issues.  :super:

Gypsum is a waste for cubes. Lentulina edodes perhaps could benefit. Cubes not so much. Maybe if I was doing peat casing for a PE grow I would add a little to help stabilize the pH a bit. Otherwise it’s pointless IMO.

It’s all I use. I like to think most of my grows turn out pretty good.
