Calcium Carbonate in WBS?
    #27020648 - 11/04/20 02:48 AM (3 years, 2 months ago)

I have some WBS soaking and I just realized the brand of WBS I used has calcium carbonate listed in the ingredients. This is the one I used: http://www.walmart.com/ip/Economy-Mix-Wild-Bird-Feed-20-lb/43200094 I've seen some people say this is fine, but I'm concerned about the pH. I used coffee/water with the recommended amounts of gypsum and lime according to RR. Should I have adjusted these amounts, or left out the lime since there's already calcium carbonate in the mix?

I can't speak from experience with WBS but I am thinking the calcium carbonate they add is probably tiny little chips of oyster shell, like in chicken feed, they add it as grit to help digestion if I'm not mistaken

don't think that will have any real solubility or affect your pH one way or the other, probably not gonna even be much available to mushrooms unless it is really a micronized dust they add, which is extremely doubtful IMHO

proceed as usual I reckon, should all be fine :shrug:

It's fine I think they pit it in because it helps clean bird beaks or some shit.

I've used it many times.
