How do ya dunk a casing?
    #5312948 - 02/18/06 09:08 AM (17 years, 11 months ago)

I have a casing not so large... but it's like a mini mono-tub.. after this first flush of about 90 wet grams... How should I go about dunking it put chicken wire over-top and sink it, or just fill the container up with water?

Fill the tub with distilled/spring water until the casing is bobbing around, put you lid on for 24 hours, drain excess water from your tub, some people add some damp vermiculite around the edges to prevent side pinning (not a necessity), and return to fruiting conditions.

There is a lot of controversy abut whether to dunk a casing or not. From what I have read, it seems like that if you are using grains or brf, then dunk. But if you are using poo, just saturate your casing layer with mist bottle.

Others will feel differently though, I'm sure.

I agree. If you're using poo, just mist the hell out of it. Grains need a good dunking after a heavy flush.
