you dont need to do either.

buckettekkit but you can sterilize it too. pasteurization of coir is not needed.

The reason people add boiling water to coir is to change the structure. Mycelium loves cooked coco coir more than uncooked. Also, if you follow a proper bucket tek, the mixture of coir and verm should be perfectly hydrated in one go.

  Thank You all,  The link that you posted does not show any sterilize or pasturize of the Verm and Coir, so does that mean that I dont have to sterilize or pasturize Verm and Coir?  Thanks

Pouring boiling water on coir is partial sterilization. And no coir doesn't need pasteurisation or sterilization. But it does work better "cooked"

  Hello bodhisatta, you stated "coir doesn't need pasteurisation or sterilization" , But what about the Verm that is mixed with the Coir,  does that (verm) need pasteurisation or sterilization ?
