optimal pH level for 50/50+ casing

#375755 - 08/21/01 04:47 PM (22 years, 3 months ago)

I just got myself setup with litmus paper, crushed coral and some different types of casing soil. I just wanted to know what the optimal pH for the cubies.

Any and all input is appreciated.
peace and thanks to all,

I'd imagine that it would be neutral (7.0); correct me if I'm wrong...

Slightly over neutral, about 7.2.

Thanks for all of your help. I will keep you informed on how things go as I am using crushed coral to bring up the pH. The only thing that worries me now is the 900ppm of Magnesium. I know mushrooms dislike Mg but I wonder if they can just ignore 900ppm.

Anyways, Ill keep you all posted. Thanks again.
Peace,

There have been some research of the button mushrooms industry that the button mushrooms dislike high levels of Mg in casing.
Nobody never did a research concerning P. cubensis.
And "high levels" is in the percentage range like 10-15 %.
Your 0.09 percent won?t do nothing.
