It looks to me that this is the type of compost that would benefit from a casing of 50/50. Just a thin layer maybe 1/2-1 inch. That will cause the mycelium to become less dense at the surface and cause aggressive pinning. But from the looks of it you could give that surface some deep scratching for the second flush and have a bigger second flush than the first. Also keep light on that thing for at least 8 hours a day. You still have a lot of shrooms left in there, just adjust the conditions. Nice documentation

why would you add a casing layer? Why would there be overlay if there was no casing layer? What was the dry weight of that first flush?

I'm with ryche on the 80 and 50 gram flush deals, the few pics I've seen of this compost look closer to 80g wet than 80g dry :wink:

I cant help but call you out on this one Dimitri. Your claims of 80 grams dry 1st flush, 50 grams dry 2nd flush on average.
I have not seen any pictures from your compost come anywhere close to that from the post I have seen.

You just just posted a picture of a 2nd flush from your compost in this thread a couple of days ago and that is no where close to 50 grams. You would be lucky to get about 14 dry grams from that. More like 10 in reality. And where is the picture from the first flush??

I mean come on, lets get real. I think its great your offering up compost for so cheap. Making it and shipping it is a lot of work.
But there is no need to put claims on it that are far from the truth. Even those nice pics Shaunstainblue posted above. A nice looking first flush but it will only dry out to about 28 grams tops I will guess.

Feel free to prove me wrong :smile:

The compost wars of '02?

This is just an observation, but if you believe this guy is to be believed I believe you are either unbelieveably naive or you haven't been paying attention or you just didn't read the threads proveing this to be the case.

The miracle compost is only one example. The proof is all over this site, at least in the posts that weren't later edited or deleted.

I commend you for requesting proof about the compost claims.

Here is a picture of the final results of 2 brf/verm cakes cased with coco coir by bizarro. The 2 biggest caps have been cut off for printing. In the room it took to hold that "compost" you could have had 4 of these trays at least.

I have severe doubts about the 80 grams dry claim as well, and perhaps I'm just trying to make myself feel better as I have quite a bit of the compost on the way in the mail, but remember that Shaunstainblu used only half a pint of colonized rye berries in this, which is not too much. I'm not entirely sure of how much the quantity of substrate matters when using compost though...

I wouldn't doubt the 80 grams dry .. the pictures of that flush didn't look too hot ... overlay, should have cased...

It does not appear to be as large as you claim but it still looks pretty good. I would not complain.

The fact that he only used a 1/2 pint of substrate will make very little difference with the first flush. We only use 1 to 2 pints of substrate with the DB kits.
Just as with the DB kits, if you use more then one bag of grain, the only place you see much of a difference is on the 3rd through 4th flush.
You tend to get larger flushes then and most of the mushrooms will have grain attached to the base. Once most of the nutriants have been used by the compost, the mycelium  then starts utilizing the grain in the later flushes. Remember, 95-99% of the substrate being used is compost, not the grain spawn.

And no this is not a compost war. In fact I give praise to Dimitri for making this service available while he did. Making and shipping compost is no easy task. Im just saying he needs to be honest and post more realistic numbers of how big of flushes his compost is capable of. Certainly your going to get decent flushes from it, as in the pics above. But still I have not seen a single pic from Dimitri or anyone else useing his compost  that comes anywhere close to his 80g 1st flush, 50grams 2nd flush claims. Not even 1/2 of that.
So that is why I'm busting his balls on this one :wink:

I thought that might be the case, but I was hoping not. I did get a dung brothers kit before they went on hold, and even without the ideal enviroment it produced more than advertised. I hope they come back soon...

Iam not mocking Shaunstainblu's work, and I do not believe anyone is saying he claimed his flush was 80 grams. That was Dimitri's claim. It is just that for a while now, I have been playing attention to see if Dimitri would post other pics to show us the potential for this compost,but he has not. I saw a few pics of some small flushes you posted a while back but that was it. I have not seen Ralph pictures. On dimitri's web site he compares his compost to some top notch compost. When you make a claim like that, you have to be able to back it up.Up to this point I have yet to see one pictures that would make this compost impressive or very effective for that matter. Iam not saying it is not. However, I am saying that you are making a pretty darn hefty claim and you have no pictures to back it up.I know you stated in the start of this thread the reason's why you have not posted your pictures, but I don't know dimitri. Iam not comparing your compost to any other. You are the one that does that on your web site. I have plenty of pictures to show excellent compost at work. Forgive me if I sound rude, but I could get the above results or any of the results you have posted from a bag of store bought compost. Actually, I have seen far superior flushes from store bought compost. Again, Shaunstainblu's this thread was not written to put down your work. Heck, for your first time dealing with a dung based compost, you did well. I believe that compost itself is lacking.I believe that because I have not seen pictures that would tell me otherwise.
