Using Jiffy Mix vs CVG (as a substrate)
    #26910432 - 08/31/20 06:22 PM (3 years, 5 months ago)

I am curious if anyone currently using Jiffy Mix as the substrate for spawning to bulk (yes i have used the search function). I know it has been done in past (older) TEKS.

I have been starting to case my tubs lately with Jiffy with much better success.

I am also wondering why a casing layer has fallen out of favor these days?

Thanks!

Actually curious on this. I read alot of older tek but haven't heard anything recently. I don't case even though it is supposed to give you amazing yields but I don't know hot to make case out of Pete lime and verm. The pH thing scares me.

Once you get surface conditions down casings don’t really make much difference for cubes which is why you don’t see it much outside of PE.

If you live in a dry climate a top layer of coir at spawn makes a huge difference and then casing on top of that helps even more.

I have very low humidity so I’ll occasionally case surfaces that come in with tons of aerial rhizo which is super sensitive and drys out or mats easily. Maz does that everytime for me.

Jiffys for a casing not a substrate, it wouldnt work well for your only sub material , theres so many better options,  a casing wont make much of a difference if your tubs are dialed in properly  and its just alot of unnecessary work if your runnin many tubs , but if your running a pe veriaty a casing makes a world of difference, its pretty much a must to get good results.
If your running just normal cubes tho a casing really isnt needed.
