First bulk grow/casing [pics]
    #5341123 - 02/26/06 01:39 PM (17 years, 10 months ago)

I took another trip out to my boy's place today and this is his first bulk grow. This is also his first casing- he used 60:40 verm:coir

He spawned a quart to each tub of straw about 2-3 weeks ago and cased 4 days ago. This is whatthey look like now. Any comments would be appreciated since neither he or I have done this before. He used this guide when doing the casings- http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Cat/0/Number/3290155/an/0/page/0


Casing # 1 (didn't patch):

Casing #2 (patched)--

Quesitons:


-- Will he have to fan? I didnt measure those holes before I left but they look to be about the diameter of a dime. They are also pretty high so maybe that wont be sufficient.


--Will those casings provide enough RH throughout the whole process or should they be misted periodicaly?

--What are some ways to tell that the moisture content is optimal?

-What will happen if the casings receive excess light?


Thanks in advance

IMO you would have to fan still sine you dont have any holes for the CO2 to excape from (or i just cant see them in the pics) tell your buddy he need 2 sets of holes down on the bottom half of his setup if he wants a singl/double tub. should be four holes uptop for fresh air, and 4 on bottom for the CO2 to excape from.

as long as he got all the moisture contents correct there should be enough moisture to create a micro climate for the casing. since hes just using 1 tray for his casing IMO its better to have the smaller holes for air exchange, but if he cased the whole bottom that would be diff..

your casing layer should be at near saturation. when you look at it in the light it should glisten. if it looks dry just open it up and spray w/ a fine mist about 12-18" away till it glistens, repeat as needed or untill you see pins. when you see pins stop all misting.

the excess light wont hurt the casings, there not plants, the light just helps initate pinning and tells the shrooms witch way is up. you want atleast 20 min a day of light, norm is 12/12 cycle w/ your light.

hope that helps ya out some..

l8r,
will
