Adding a casing layer right away
    #24013830 - 01/16/17 06:25 AM (7 years, 14 days ago)

From what I have read you wait for 99% colonization before casing, but my question is; what happens if you just mix your spawn and sub and add a casing layer right away?

For one thing it would make seeing and evaluating colonization state more difficult.
Its probably doable though. In a way outdoors grow is a bit like that.

you could still get by but thats a good point. but when ive used a real casing(only a few times) it always went on after the sub colonized.
the point of a casing is to help make a micro climate for better pinning conditions. id imagine youd want the sub colonized.

you can also use a top layer of bulk sub to cover any exposed grains and it acts as a quasi casing.
back in the day we made casings with coco anyway.

So it doesn't really sound detrimental, just not optimal?

its not either

with cubes it just helps YOU give the better micro climate for this pins.
but you dont need one to give the same conditions. its just easier.

having a tub dialed in 100% will do the same.
