Will this work for 50/50 casing?
    #26593799 - 04/11/20 04:14 PM (3 years, 9 months ago)

My appologies if this has been discussed a zillion times but i couldnt find a clear answer.

I have Agricultural lime i want to add to my peat moss and verm casing layer .

In RR's lets grow mushrooms series he says you can use 1 part calcium carbonate OR 1/4 part hydrated lime.

My question is....DO i have the "correct" calcium carbonate here in the picture shown?

Calcium carbonate = CaCo3
Hydrated lime = Calcium hydroxide Ca2
They are not the same think. They serve the same purpose but they behave different. The label is confusing and I can't say for sure how to use it...

Wrong stuff. That's dolomitic (magnesium)

So it will not work and I shouldnt even bother trying?

Is lime absolutely needed for a peat / verm casing layer?

My understanding is that the PH adjustment creates and environment where trich. and molds have a hard time living?

Where as if you do not adjust the PH of the casing layer it will support the growth of contams?



Thanks for the input guys.
