Should I fruit or spawn from grain?
    #25947395 - 04/21/19 11:30 AM (5 years, 8 months ago)

I'm only beginning with grain and was planning to use the colonised grains in a tray with a casing layer. Then with a bit experience of this move on to spawning coir.

However I've read that it's not really suitable to fruit from grain due to low moisture. So should I just go straight to bulk?

I got my first clones from cased grain in a shoe box ... but if you have clean spawn and the sub to run it why not just make a sub .. you could mix the coir and spawn then transfer to however many shoeboxes you want

Thanks bro. Well I haven't the coir sourced just yet. As long as it's possible to get something from it I think it's worth it for the experience. No point adding another step in as I understand it's easier to contam with bulk

Yeah it's all in your spawn really .. unless working with poo .. you can goto Wally world and buy coir and jiffy seed starter for a casing.. I always use jiffy for my casing it's great

Oh yeah? Bit confused about casing layer. Thought it was supposed to be non-nutritious. Just there to provide extra moisture. U getting good results?
To be fair I have heard of 50/50 verm coir so there must be an advantage to adding nutrient. Why does verm work on its own then too

Ah ok cheers. Thought jiffy was some kind of coir. That makes sense with what I've read
