Casing question
    #5281927 - 02/09/06 01:56 PM (17 years, 11 months ago)

I just made a couple of casings, but forgot to put a bottom layer on the first of them. Is this going to be a big problem, or should it be fine? I'm keeping them in a humid environment and I've heard that the only purpose of the bottom casing layer is humidity so I figure it should be ok, but I wanted some input from more experienced people.

Many don't include the bottom layer.

I never have used one and have never had a problem with casings.

It started as a dry layer to absorb excess water from over waterings but soon it was moistened to help keep the sub from shrinking too much too fast. It really is optional and provides a nice buffer as far as water delivery is concerned but is by no means necessary.
