mixing verm with wbs before casing?

#3828620 - 02/24/05 05:15 PM (19 years, 1 month ago)

I have soaked/simmer WBS ready to case, and I was thinking about adding some PC'ed water/fieldcapacity verm (3-1) ratio...bad idea? Sounds like begging for contamns to me. Work would be done in a glovebox

peace

I know what strikes me as odd about this. It is totally unnatural. The whole idea is just totally backwards.

So are historians going to look back at 'The Great Cake Eaters'? Damn. That was a backwards step in the evolutionary process. We left Shroomheads in the dust. Welcome to the new age of Vermheads.

I ONLY STUDY legal, edible mushrooms and mycology. Any mention of any other kind of mushroom is purely fictional, and pictures are ripped from the internet. I do not grow mushrooms!

You have soaked/simmer WBS ready to case? I don't understand. Do you mean ready to inoculate? Or ready to pressure cook? Clarify

No need to add verm to WBS jars, if done correctly they will have plenty of pockets and correct moisture content.

Even performed in a glovebox, if I understand what you're trying to say here, it's super risky contam wise to add verm to sterilized jars.

hmmm...lets try this again.

Colonized large spawnbags of WBS that has been soaked/simmered/pc'd. (first soak, then simmer, then pc, then innoc karowater, then incubate, then full colonization..."baby steps"...) I was looking at threads in search that suggest mixing in verm while casing...not just in the casing layer

The bags would be opened in a glovebox, verm mixed in, then laid out in a casing dish and casing mix spread on top...

are we on the same page yet?

Damp verm will supply the much needed moisture that is often lacking in a straight WBS substrate. Do it.
