You get more surface area to fruit grating cakes to coir



But if the end result is the same then how is the larger surface area beneficial?



Anytime I have ever grated cakes to coir the output was greater! That's really why I only do bulk now :shrug:




Soon I will attempt a bulk! Just haven't decided if it will be with BRF to bulk or if I will just go straight to WBS or Oats.



I started with Rye Berries then moved to WBS....now I do Oats majority of the time :rockon:

i think the coir would colonize and loose it's water holding property. it's too nutritious and that's why it's not used as a casing layer.



:whathesaid: Totally agree! The myc would devour it!



People have done it and that's exactly what happened.  You would essentially have to case/roll them twice, first with coir, then with verm.  It's just adding vectors and if I recall properly from back in the day, people had better results with regular old cakes dunk n' rolled with a dash of gypsum.  I tried reinventing the wheel a lot myself when I was new, lol.

Experimenting is fun anyways, but yea, it has been done already.

The question is... When I finally decide, would it be better off to inoculate some grains first or would it be better to do some agar with an MS syringe? I was figuring if I was to go the jar way I could transfer grain mycelium to agar and do a tub with the rest of the spawn or MS to agar and isolate first and transfer agar to grain. Which would be a better plan of attack?

Agar is always best when dealing with MS syringes
