Casing / Top Layer
    #27119866 - 01/01/21 08:09 AM (3 years, 27 days ago)

So I didn't put a casing / top layer on a few boxes (after I had mixed the grains) to see what would happen.

Not sure what to do now.
Should I put some more coir / verm on top or just leave it to do it's thing?

Here is a pic:


I have a few like this and it would be no bother to just sick a layer on top if that's what's needed

The pic is a little unclear but that’s pinning, correct?  Your surface conditions look good... sometimes when ppl don’t add a top layer, you’ll be able to see where the exposed grain was and that usually means the tub isn’t going to do as well as if there was a top layer but with yours, it almost looks like there was a top layer.. I’d just leave it.. I bet it still does well

Thanks - I didn't give this one a top layer, it's an experiment.
The little treasures aren't pinning yet but I hope they will...

There’s no pins in that tub?  It must just be the lighting and shadows.. in the bottom left corner @ about 8 o’clock there looks like a cluster.. with golden stems and caps and everything lol.. I guess It’s just the pic.  In that case (no pun intended) you could throw a top layer on np if you wanted.. still could if it was pinning but not sure it would do that much besides make it messier when cleaning the fruits.  Could still benefit from the top layer though.  I always have a better flush with one but no one will fault you for not putting one on for experiments sake
