question about monotub substrate & casing Ingredients and ratios
    #28631766 - 01/23/24 07:01 AM (4 days, 20 hours ago)

Greetings, so I'm starting my grow in a couple of days and I'm doing a Penis Envy 5 qt colonized Organic Rye Berries Grain spawn jars in a 66qt monotub (24" L x 16" W), and I'm willing to use the following Ingredients for bulk sub and casing:
Sub:(dehydrated horse manure, exotic zoo manure, organic coconut coir, vermiculite, and gypsum)
Casing:  organic peat moss, coarse vermiculite, hydrated lime and granular gypsum
my question is how much of each Ingredients to use in Sub and in Casing?
thanks.

PE can can be on the slow side, be prepared.

Materials
Common current practices are,  Feild capacity coir steamed with boiling water is the only material for bulk other than clean spawn.  I use boiling distilled water in a preheated cooler at 4:1.  4 x (grams of dry coir)= ml of water. ex 622g x 4 = 2488ml of water.

Amounts
Ratio depends on cleanliness of spawn and many other variables.  1:1 for sketchy spawn 1:6 for pristine fast producers.  With PE after you've mixed your spawn and coir up and leveled out, adding a top layer 1/2"-3/4" of coir evenly will encourage fruits over PE's notorious blobs.  Good luck and the more simple you can keep it the less variables to deal with.  Check out The Hitchhiker's Guide at top of forum.
