Ideal depth for substrate / grain for a good harvest?
    #26928120 - 09/10/20 11:43 AM (3 years, 4 months ago)

So I have lots of clear containers / bins around the house ranging from 15qt to 90qt. I'm clear on what I need in terms of substrate to colonized grain ratio but I don't know what the ideal amount I need to use per container is. I don't want to have the material depth so thin that I don't get any sprouts or I only have one flush but I don't want there to be so much that I'm just wasting material. As always, thanks for your guys' replies!

I find that a good amount is about 2-4 inches of substrate but it might depend on the tub you're growing in. I'm no expert but I don't think you will go wrong with this amount.

I'd recommend just following a tek with similar sized containers to get an idea as to how much substrate to use

:whathesaid:
Just don't go below ~2 inches, otherwise the sub tends to dry out too quickly.
