Bulk Sub Time ... Trust Midwest Grow Kit's Bulk Casing Sub?
    #26964378 - 10/01/20 05:41 PM (3 years, 3 months ago)

So, I built a Martha Tent a while back, and I've dialed in the conditions quite nicely while exhausting a monotub cube grow my buddy got started.  That grow is finished, and I've got some Blue Oyster on WBS almost ready to pop.  When I was ramping up to do all this I bought 3 bags of Midwest Grow Kit's Bulk Casing Sub, which was what my buddy used to get the monotub mentioned above going in the first place.

Eventually, I want to make my own substrate and my own casing, but for now I have these three sealed 5 lb bags, so I might as well use them right?

I know now that saying Bulk Casing Substrate is sort of silly, since casings are largely non-nutritive and serve a different purpose from bulk substrates.  However, the website says their Bulk Casing Substrate has "the perfect combination of Coco Coir, Vermiculite, Hydrated Lime, Gypsum, ph buffers, ph stabilizers, mineral water and a few other choice ingredients".  That sounds a lot like CVG bulk sub recipes I've seen around here, so does that seem like a suitable substrate to use for my initial BO bulk spawn?  You can see the details of what I've done up to this point in my journal entry here, but basically I have a fatty Ball pint jar almost fully colonized.  I was planning to put the grain spawn in a shoe-box or some similar sized container with this bulk substrate at a ratio of 1:3 up to 1:5, spawn to substrate.

Any thoughts you more experienced cultivators can offer would be appreciated.  I have other grains spawning now so if I lose this first batch it's not the end of the world, but I'm hoping to get something going with it in the Martha Tent over the next 10 days or so.
