shitcakes recipe?
    #22266087 - 09/20/15 05:37 PM (8 years, 4 months ago)

i am looking at recipes for pf cakes with manure like this one:

5 cups vermiculite
3 cups manure
10 tblspns BRF
1.5 - 1.75 cups water

from: http://www.shroomery.org/8418/How-do-I-cultivate-Panaeolus-cyanescens
and several like it.

that seems like a very low amount of water, are they talking about fresh manure?
if so how do i convert for dried (cow) manure?

It's dried manure...you don't want a "wet" mixture...you want a mixture that is at field capacity. A slightly dryer mix is loads better than an overly wet mix.

mmm i have these compressed pellets that i assumed would be the same as regular flakes
after grinding them. but after some testing it seems a pf equivilent 2-1-1 mix yields a much dryer cake
then my regular pf cakes. maybe the stuff i have is different,

if i just keep the proportions of the dry materials in the recipe and add water 'by feel'
till it passes the squeeze test like in this video: http://www.mushroomvideos.com/Casing-Layer-Preparation
i should be ok right?

If you have a good source of composted manure, it is usually seasoned and basically pasteurized at 140-160F naturally. Manure doesn't need to be PC'ed at all, even though I re-pasteurize before using.

I prefer 2.5/2.5/2.5/2.45. That half teaspoon of water really made a difference

Stop experimenting half way through your first grow. Grow it to maturity, watch it, learn from it. Do this a few times then experiment with different ideas and figure out what works best for you.

i feel that with moisture content it's often a matter trial and error.
