casing layer after first flush ???
    #22168960 - 08/31/15 12:39 PM (8 years, 4 months ago)

HEllo guys. my casing had a little first flush, now I've added some wet vermiculite on it and I'm waiting for some guys to come out. But I'm not sure I did it well. Is it a problem if it's a too thick layer? and should I keep fanning now or I just wait for the myc to come out, as I did for the first casing time.

thanks :thaaannks:

You guys seriously need to stop referring to your substrate trays as 'casings'.  That is an incorrect term unless all you have is a casing layer and no manure, grains, or anything.  Nobody grows mushrooms on 'casings', period.

The casing layer is only the top layer on a colonized bulk substrate, nothing else.  'Casing' sure as hell isn't a name for a mushroom growing project.

I dont think it is very common to apply a 2'nd casing layer after flushes, if that is what you are doing. But yeah, keep doing what you are doing if it works :thumbup:

The variety I work with goes from perfect casing colonization when FC's are induced to full casing colonization at harvest, so I like to apply a very thin layer of casing over that, which tends to last a little longer before getting munched.


--------------------


I spawned some popcorn casings and had double-overlay cause I didn't put enough hydrogen peroxide in my automated aquarium mister.  I only got one mushroom so I cut off the head part where the seeds fall from and put it in a jar of LC and sprayed it all over a tin of PF cakes I made with gravel, cardboard, and bisquick in my microwave.  I think it will be good cause B+ is so potent.
Triggered yet?

Only a square would say "a cube is a cube."


No, this does not look right...

Ok I try to explain better.

I had two cakes, which I crumbled and put in a FC with a very thin vermiculite layer on it, I could not cover the entire mycelium coz I ran out of verm. After first flush, which was not big at all, I tried to put one more layer of wet verm (which I bought in the meanwhile) so the myc could be covered entirely and stay wet.

Now it's been a few days and nothing coming out. Help!

PS: BTW, I just tried to make a spore print for my first time, should I see something on the foil or are they invisible? thanks

a few days is nothing, just be patient. casing or patching after a flush can give all the shit thats landed on your sub a nice climate to thrive in. dont do it next time.

you should be seeing a lot of spores, but the cap wont drop spores if it stays too wet. how are you printing them? following any tek?
