AKA Sorghum right? I have not. Not sure what it's called in Spanish or where I would find it. I can get millet (called mijo) in either red or white from pet food stores as bird food. Pretty cheap, $3 and change/kilo. I think I'll try to order some and do 6 jars of oats and 6 of millet.

That's expensive grain man. I pay 8€ for a 30kg bag of oats. Go find some farming coop or feed store and get some feeding grain.

The only person on the Island suppling this for $33/50 lbs Found on FB actually...
 Prolly a lifetime supply at my current rate, so I added a cup of diatomaceous earth. The next challenge is to find straw, cut up preferably, or sawdust... Now even eBay vendors don't want to ship to PR.

Wait what? I thought a casing was just anything that went over your sub to help retaining the right amount of moisture.

That's what I did, but you will have to see how your shrooms are performing, and adjust accordingly.

Been having trouble with properly hydrating oats. Is it okay if they’re not hydrated all the way through (still a little bit of white in the middle)? Keep getting a ton of burst grain boiling 30 minutes, was gonna try just boiling 15-20 minutes.

After some further digging I found a place that supposedly sells 50 kg of millet for ~15 USD. They have bulk oats too

For the straw you can probably use dead grass. I’m sure there’s tons of long grass by you. I’ve got a grow going right now with dead grass from my yard just soaked in water and mixed with spawn and it’s doing great surprisingly.
A real casing is something the myc won’t eat and strictly holds water and creates a microclimate for the surface. Jiffy seed starter mix is great mixed with verm.

Hello there, how this is looking, 8 days since spawn to bulk, yes it have a crack in the middle because the first days y lifted it from the middle and with that mild box it was cracking... now i dont do that. I keep it with the lid a bit cracked.
 
Should i put it on my martha FC now or keep incubating for more time? If y see it from below i can see a side that is almost full colonized but the other side not that much, i think i could mixed it better.

It’s better to start fruiting right when you make the tub, shaves a couple days off.
It’s tough to tell with verm but it might be a little dry.

I think the field capacity was ok but then i add the dry casing layer of vermiculite, just misted it a bit... so i put it in my martha with open lid? Should i mist it? Its my first "tub" btw.

Yeah I would mist it if you put dry vermiculite on top.

I misted it a bit the day after y bulk it, i will move it to the FC in some hours and mist it again. Should i keep it with the cracked lid in inside martha or without the lid?
Thanks for the help! Hoping to get some shrooms in the next 2 weeks
