You mean a casing? Coir is the fastest and peat is the best IMO.

Why do people put a casing layer out of curiosity? Does it really help? I do my monotubs without a casing layer and they seem to do fine but I suppose it could do better.. I could search it but for the sake of conversation and me being lazy, I'll ask here.

It's easier to hold a good microclimate and as such, easier to get better pinsets. Cubes don't need a casing layer but that doesn't mean they don't benefit greatly from one.

You talking about already having cakes and you are crumbling them and spawning them to trays with hpoo and fruiting them in a sgfc? And if you should cover the trays after spawning for colonization?

Doesn't matter what you use, the lid it comes with is perfect. If it is coloured you will end up with shrooms like these

That's because the light source is to the side. You can also use some kind of transparent plastic sheeting instead, so you can do the light source directly above the tub for straight shrooms but I wouldn't bother honestly. As long as you get shrooms, it's all dandy.
If you were wondering about drip shields and shit, we don't use those anymore because we supply enough FAE for them to be redundant nowadays.

So you are going to remove the lid after colonization? You could and it would make for a great flush if you babysit it enough to mist whenever it dries.

I believe he's talking about trays to be put in the sgfc, aluminum foil works, poke a couple small holes.
