Casing mixtures: any suggestions?
    #2714945 - 05/22/04 02:43 PM (19 years, 10 months ago)

I'm planning on casing for the first time, and haven't come to a conclusion on what to use for my casing layer. I was going to use jiffy mix, but I'm told there are pH problems related to it, and I don't know where to find coco coir (unless it's at walmart) because I live in a small college town. Anyways can anybody recommend a casing layer that is effective, and consists of relatively easy things to find? Thanks.

I've had good results (and suprisingly few contaminations) by mixing oak sawdust 1:1 with vermiculite. I've never seen anyone else using this method, but it worked well for me.
