used around 3 quarts of spawn to 6 quarts sub
4q coir 1q verm 1q poo (first time woo!) 2q water 1/2 cup gypsum
Got a bag of Cow Manure from Lowe's, it was outside so it was frozen but after thawing out I'm going to hope it's still fine. It's a great texture and I think I'm going to use even more of it next time.
Sub came out nice and dry and fluffy like I wanted, last time it was way too wet and took forever to colonize. I also used azurs method of casing at the start using cvg, with the poly stuffed.
I intended to hydrate the grains as per Frank's advice but I forgot to so oh well. I'll just give it a mist every day or so.
This is a surprise variety! It's either Ecuador or AA+ so I'm hoping it's the albino. Either way I'm very excited.

Everyone is having such success with this. I've had some great success as well, but is everyone still patching to help ensure even pinsets? I notice my colonization of the casing is a little different than it's been with the taped holes. Is this my imagination? I don't have nearly as many grows down as the rest of you, so I'm just curious.
I mean, I guess for example the amount of poly might depend on your GH's ambient humidity, right? Like, loose poly may work wonders in Florida or Alabama, but mean certain failure in Utah? In the end it's gotta get dialed in. But what about patching. That's my real question. Man I'm stoned. Thanks to all of you

Ok so I just spawned a PE tub today, I cased it right when I spawned it too this time (I usually case at full colonization).
After reading this, Im pulling the tape out. Throwing poly in!

Thanks, brother. I was feeling that may have been one of my problems. I have a feeling my next minimonos are going to be much better now.

Loving it man, I see it's working great for you as well, 13 days is f'n awesome! I plan on doing some regular cubes this way as well w/o casing. Got a blender and getting into liquids, can't wait to see how much time is shaved off overall from inoculation to harvest

Did this yesterday! First time using poo, got some composted stuff, I'm sure it's better than none!
My first mono I followed franks tek, in which he also cases at spawn, so the only real difference for me is stuffing the poly. However I don't think I made my casing thick enough as I've got some exposed grains, I'm going to patch them as I've heard that exposed grains are a large vector for contams.

very very nice ND
here is a tub that showed pins 13 days after spawning. I mixed the tub on 12/13 ... pins on 12/26 ... first flush and harvest today 1/4.
PE pins in 13 days and the whole first flush finished in 22 days.
for PE ! game changer
 four days after first pins

Awesome! Those look great. Got some AA+ to spawn in the next couple days, going to use this method with no casing.

Here's the tub I was talking about before being picked. Second flush is doing well too with no trich.

Woke up today to see those spots I patched showing through the casing again...should I just leave it? Try to keep the seeds moist so they don't dry out and contam? Only been a couple days since spawn

Both of my 66 tubs of AA+ are pinning very well. I'm misting lightly each day and leaving a fan on with very loose top Poly. Them bastards love the mist.

Dude, Eatyualive,
you are among those that inspire me to try harder each time to achieve even better results. I can't thank all of you enough. I feel if I follow yours, cronicr's, azur's, muda's and some of the TC's advice I could get to where I need to be eventually Props too to bodhisatta.... In a way I love you all for your willingness, nay generosity to share methodologies.
AND NDSTEPP84?? WTF? I only wish I'd read what you had when I started; instead of wasting hundreds on some BS kit, and obsessing over old teks i'd read. I could have had a stash over a qp of pe if I'd read what you had about a year ago.
Though you simply may be smarter. It does happen. though I ain't no fool/ Actually, it seems that most active shroomerites are most probably within the 3% of the more intelligent population. 
Stay positive, thanks for the good vibes and bless up, brother!
All in all, you guys haven't the faintest idea how much i appreciate you all. Bless up, all of you!

When the senior members give me advice I take it as as gold and don't assume I know better, Keep at it and you will get there. I would agree that a lot of mush cult is smarter than the general population, some of the smartest people I have had the pleasure of conversing with. I'd say I'll be flush with PE for a while credit goes to this place and it's members, wouldn't have happened without.
