Perlite beneath casings.
    #5281918 - 02/09/06 01:54 PM (18 years, 11 months ago)

I hate to bump such an old post, but in an older post I ran across, somone claims they did a casing with 1/2" of perlite directly under their casing of rye berries with 3/8" of verm on top. Below is the pic of his grow.
I have seen many posts where people reccomend to not do this. Has anyone else had good luck with this process?

Vrem or Per?

I use a bottom layer, for a layer case I use a 50/50 mix.

You don't want Per on top or bottom.

I've recently decided to experiment with putting a small bit of saturated perlite on the bottom of a casing. It's a small casing w/ 3 BRF cakes, cased with coir/verm. I just cased it like 2 days ago and I'm just incubating at room temp, so I'm still waiting for the myc to break through the casing layer. But I'll let you know if it was successful at all.
