Evaluate this Flush. Identify the strain?
    #22054760 - 08/06/15 05:57 PM (8 years, 5 months ago)

Here is a picture I found online ;-). The substrate is 50/50 pasteurized horse poo and coir. Cased with pure peat moss with lime added for ph. Does this look healthy? Was it lacking o2 our humidity. Do you know the strain? I have been researching coir and so far I am not impressed.

Ooh yes, it appears that the bottom left corner has been picked.

for any substrate at all that's sub par. the links are to some superb coir grows.

you can't tell a strain by looking, it's probably multiple strains, even some mushroom fruit bodies are made of multiples strains. you can't tell the variety by looking either.

looks like 1/4 of that tub surface didn't fruit. poorly mixed, not very level, not dialed in great, not ideal strain isolation. etc..

they could have benefitted from more FAE, but so could most grows :shrug:

Frank did all his stuff on coir and he had some pretty decent tubs

Deformed from bacteria. Looks like a late casing

I have read other post where people think they can tell the strain. I don't expect to truly identify them. I to think it's sub par. I would expect almost twice as many and twice as tall for a first flush.

I don't see any signs of bacteria in this pic.
What are the signs of late casing? What is your definition of late casing?

When I case at 100% the casing layer is usually colonized about 50 to 60% before pins by harvest it is mostly colonized . if I late case it's to control water pooling on the surface and causing pin deformities and bacteria. I don't case most of the time . Just my opinion.  I'm definitely not  a TC here . Did you find a pic of the lid to ? Tub style is not the norm .

it also really depends what you case with, that's some dark casing like jiffy mix, probably not coir. could even be potting soil.

One could not call coir a casing layer.
It's pure peat moss with lime added to balance ph.
The container appears to be a standard sterlite plastic tub. A mono tub setup with air holes.
Here is a pic of a similar lid, not the one used in this grow. The heat produced by the substrate produced enough convection to deposit spores on the outside of the lid. Sort of like a chimney.

You can't call coir a casing? Even if its not fully colonized, was applied at full colonization and provided a microclimate?

Clearly these were not cased then. . .




Anyone guess what variety these are?

Right here :derfase:



I should mention that all substrates including the reishi were brought to you by coir :cookiemonster:

The reishi is a mix of oak fuel pellets, coir, and verm.

I think he was saying you cannot call coir a casing because of its nutritional value.
A casing, by definition is a non-nutritious layer. 
Btw, i once did a mini mono using jiffy mix as the substrate and got over an ounce off of it. Had one quart of rye
