Casing a colonized tub?
    #23982206 - 01/04/17 06:36 PM (7 years, 26 days ago)

Hello!
I've got a mono that ended up having the oats kinda mixed into the top layer of the CVG. Would I be better off fruiting as is, or making up a bit of CVG and giving it a little top layer?

Case it. It will be fun and should give you some nice fruits.

Either way. Casing will make it easier to maintain good conditions but it will do fine without one.

My other tubs, I put a layer of CVG on top. Is this the same as a casing? Or are casing added after colonization? Do casings get colonized?

Casing is added after and the goal is to keep it from colonising.

What is your sub? I used CVG as my sub and then the leftover as a casing once it was colonized. It works great as a casing. I haven't had to mist my tubs at all- I haven't even opened them since I introduced FAE initially. They are next to a window and the side by the window always builds moisture on the wall. When the other side dissipates all I have to do is give it a 180 turn. It has been super easy to maintain. I must say though that I did dunk my spawn before mixing it with my field capacity sub. Moisture content is excellent and the tubs are dialed in.

I would case if I were you. Either way I hope your grow goes well!

Thanks bud! My sub is CVG. I will definitely try to case it.

I also started 2 other tubs of GT and it's growing unlike anything I've seen yet.

The growth is completely rhizomorphic and is showing through the top layer in little circles of white hairs reaching to the sky. I will try to get a picture, it's totally cool!

I've only done 1 pf grow with 18 cakes, and one monotub that is just finishing up, so this is still quite fresh for me. I just realized... If all 3 of these 66qt monos fruit... Wtf am I going to do with all of it?!
