Ok, I'm 95% sure I used 2 parts vermiculite, but what if I didn't? facepalm

Finally finished preparing 7 jars of PF Tek.. I'm 95% sure I used 2 cups of Vermiculite, but I can't remember at the moment (so exhausted..)

I absolutely doubt I didn't..but in the case I used only 1 cup verm, 1 part BRF, and 1 part water, is this a deal breaker? Would mushrooms still grow just fine?

I think you'd have noticed, the mix will feel very wet without that extra cup of verm.

It would probably fail.  The mycelium would have trouble due the density of the substrate and it would be prone to bacterial contamination.
