Casing Question
    #27086357 - 12/12/20 07:46 PM (3 years, 1 month ago)

OK this is my 3rd grow & first with Grain to Coir. These 2 monotubs are Penis Envy and almost fully colonized. Would you add a casing layer? Coir or Coir/Verm mix & lastly how thick if necessary? Thanks for any info. This site has helped me immensely.

I'd definitely case with 50/50 verm/peat mix at 100% colonization.

These are good references for casing PE:

With my PE grows on straight coir, they blob like crazy first flush regardless of how much I let the mycelium consolidate. If I case with peat and verm (and then let the mycelium colonize the casing 20-30%) and then patch exposed mycelium I don't get any blobs.

Some folks have had success with coir casings. But for me, between having the additional consolidation time with the casing, and a lower nute source for pinning, this is what has worked for me most.
