Transferring PF cakes to horse manure

#4168951 - 05/13/05 01:44 AM (13 years, 1 month ago)

Someone directed me to a post about transferring PF cakes to horse dung awhile back, but I lost the link, and I can't find anything via Search. If some helpful soul would provide a link, or perhaps just outline the procedure, I would be indebted.

I have the concept down, and I could probably wing it, but I'd rather start out with solid information. For example, when does one apply a casing layer? How small should the chunks of mycelium transferred to the dung be? You're supposed to poke a few holes (w/a fork) into the tinfoil to help aeration, right? Etc...

Apply the casing layer when its 98-100% colonized. I'd wait till its 100%.

I think it was Roadkill that suggested using a cheese grater to grind up cakes into small pieces. Pretty small.

Yea poke a few holes in the foil so it can breath a little. I poke 5-6 toothpick holes in it.

Sorry don't know what thread you're talking about. Hope this helps.

Try this one. This tek, by Roadkill, will pretty much answer all of your questions. Next time save yourself the waiting for a reply and do a search. :wink:

Oops. Sorry about that Roadkill. If it's any conciliation, I use a combo tek between Agar's and yours. :blush:
