coir has no nutes in the traditional sense. that quote has nothing to do with what we would be 'weeping' for.
sure it has minerals and other things for the mushroom but so does dirt. you could eat dirt and get some minerals and 'nutes'




You are speaking out of ignorance, or ill experience. If you had let's a BRF cake and cased it in 5050 verm/peat and fruited, do you think you would have the same yield if you took that exact same cake and spawned to 5050 verm/coir and allowed it to colonize completely? No of course not, this is because the coir acts just as Horse manure and cow manure, it increases the biomass of the mycelium thus allowing for larger yields. If bulk didn't increase yields it wouldn't be called bulk, and there would be no reason to fuck with it when you could easily case and fruit much easier.

water.

ass.

how can you say i have ill experience and then ask about a pf cake being spawned
to a casing and then compared that to spawning to a bulk substrate.??

I used a cake as an example because thats what op is using. Tell me this, why would anyone pasturize a ton of cow shit, when they could just as easily case with verm and give it the same amount of water, if it makes no difference in the yield? Why would you bother consolidating the substrate at all if according to you, it had all it needs right out of the jar. What do you think a nutrient is? Something that just sounds fancy and thrown around arbitrarily. The only difference between bulk and casing is the presence of nutrients in bulk and the absence of nutrients in the casing. This is what makes a difference in yield, not water.

Lets make this easy, why dont you educate the class of the distinction between bulk and casing?

no. thats ok.

but for laughs. bulk is when you supplement the spawn with more water to increase yield.

a casing is a tool the grower uses to control surface conditions for pinning.

i never said that, and i dont consolidate substrates.:shrug:

you can. its called the rez tek. but you spawn to verm, not case with it.

For one that wasn't even addressed to you, but a earlier poster. Secondly

Funny, I didn't read much about water in that post. Maybe your right and RR is wrong, I'm sure that's very likely (Sarcasm)

Excusee me for following the advice of a clearly superior grower. I guess I'm in the wrong place, I thought this was a place leople go to read and learn. I guess I'm wrong just another forum of fat headed children who spam their memes and think they're the shit. Funny how it took you this long to even state your reasoning (only after I asked you to), you're to busy being rude and shitty to others for no good reason

By the way nice TC tag, it's almost like it's not there

So what difference does it make if water is being given to the cakes by vermiculite than horse manure. Assuming they both have the same amount of water, they both should yield the same following your logic (the question you have yet to answer). If water is what matters why fuss with manure when you get a bag of verm? If the same amount of water is added to each, why is the bulk substrate consistently higher yielding?

I wasn't referring to that, I simply stating I'd rather follow the advice of someone who has proven themselves to be proficient at growing, rather than the way you interpret them.

because it has more water.

you can grow huge shrooms of tiny substrates just as long as you pump it with water.

surface area or size of the medium(substarte) does not equal more yield either.

people dont spawn straight to verm because its too expensive. and kind hard to keep the surface moist and glistening.

and you are jumping to conclusions. and nobody spawns cakes to hpoo. the repeated use of that
shows that you are a newbie and have no clue what you are talking about. just going off assumptions
you drew off shit you read thats older then my cats.

this is going nowhere.

you want more mushrooms? add more water. how do you add more water? in a bulk substrate.

if nutes in a bulk sub is what gives you bigger yields then why use grains/cakes at all?
just colonize hpoo straight from spores and grow massive amounts of shrooms.

Because you're going to have a damn hard time getting spores to germinate in such an environment. People have successfully skipped grains using only LC and bulk and have had great results.

Once again I used it as an example. And you can get 50lb bag of verm at home Depot for 3 bucks, you must be really poor to find that expensive. And you do understand that most of that water goes away when you dry the fruits. It doesn't magically turn into a mushroom. Hence the reason wet weight is 10x dry weight.

The reason people don't spawn to vermiculite isnt because it doesn't glisten it's because the mycelium won't colonize it because it contains no nutrients.
