Easy Substrate question
    #27133617 - 01/07/21 06:19 PM (3 years, 21 days ago)

I'm using a coco coir, vermiculite and gypsum mixture as substrate. I'll need to boil water, dump it in the bucket with said ingredients and wait for it to cool down before mixing and spawning and all that good stuff...yall know the drill. Just curious though,  how long do you think I could safely leave the substrate in the bucket before using?

I've used as far out as 1.5 weeks after dumping water on it without issue. You just have to scrape the bottom where it tends to cake on the bottom of the bucket, put the lid on and then give it a good shaking to get it fluffed up and to redistribute the moisture...that's if you store it with a lid mostly on so that it doesn't dry out.

Clean spawn is what you need to worry about, I always have some left over cv laying around 8n buckets, I've never seen it contaminate on its own.

I've used month old coir. I absolutely love coir, you can hydrate with cold tap water no issues.

coir stays hydrated for a long time in a air tight container. I have personally used coir that i made over 3 months ago and it's still FC and good.
