Semi-Noob question
    #21998645 - 07/26/15 07:15 AM (8 years, 6 months ago)

Is it ok to put a casing layer before 100% colonization of the "spawning" substrate?

Here is how it is layered:
1/2 inch of dirt
for casing      1-|////
1 quart of WBS  2-|^^^^
1qaurt of dirt  3-|////
1 quart of WBS  4-|^^^^
1/4 inch of dirt5-|////

dirt= cior/verm 45/55

Layers 2-4 were mixed with gloves, then cased with layer 1. Will the grow still yield average or above average results? 

P.S Thank you in advance for any response.

dirt = coir/verm?

i don't know what all those punctuation marks are for :confused:

u can case at spawning, in middle of spawn run, etc.  usually people do it after 100%, because otherwise, if something bad happened with ur spawn, u won't see it under the casing.  if u apply it at spawning, or mid spawn run, u run the risk of it over colonizing, which some don't like, and others seem to not mind.

You're using a lot of verm there. You only need enough to fluff up the substrate to hold water and be a bit more nutritious to myc.

I would do like 70/30 or closer to that area. 75-25 is good too.

Damion5050's bulk sub is not a 50/50 mix.
