Dumb question!

OK everyone, I know this question is going to sound a little stupid, I've searched the entire site and I couldn't find any info, so I was hoping that you experts could throw some light this way. Could we use semen.... (no, just kidding ) The question is: when you apply the casing layer to the substrate, does it have to be done in an sterile environment as a glove box or can you do it anywhere because the casing layer is non-nutritive and the substrate is completely colonized so the chance of contam is very low, I don't know.

Your thinking is correct. I worry about contams probably the least when adding a casing layer. If your at that stage your good to go.
On a side note. You could have made that post easier for me to read by just asking the question right away. When ever you start to write to someone start off in your head with the words "I'm writing to tell/ask you" Then start writing. LOL!.. Just a little bit of a lecture I recently listened too on effective communication. I actually find it is useful.

It doesn't have to be completely sterile. You should wash your hands with antibacterial soap and kinda be clean about it. But nothing over the top.
::EDIT:: gah, i'm slow, but yeah, musher's got it pinned.

Just cleanliness is required. Not sterility. Just like "Birds" said. 
Assuming your using a properly prepared casing mix. Meaning pasteurized and Ph balanced.
