Manure vs. C/V Bulk Substrate
    #27772143 - 05/11/22 02:01 AM (2 years, 8 months ago)

So I have been hearing that manure is totally unnecessary and it’s just worth it to grow exclusively with coir/vermiculite bulk substrate due to the nutrient profile and vector for contamination.

Is there proof of this or is this just an opinion based on anecdotal evidence? I currently get good untouched horse manure for free from a pasture my friend works at, so I am more incentivized to use that instead of paying for coir.

However, if coir/Verm really Is easier, safer, and the results are the same then I likely would want to use that instead.

Horse dung requires pasteurizing and can be prone to contamination if your spawn isn't clean.
C/v works very well and has been proven to be more than good enough to produce excellent yields, I get horse dung for ridiculously cheap but I still use c/v because of the ease.

Thanks, I will likely switch to C/V since the results seem to be pretty indistinguishable if not more successful.
