Simple Saturation Question
    #5345099 - 02/27/06 12:27 PM (17 years, 10 months ago)

My and my friend are trying to be exact with misting..

So what does it mean when people say your casing should be "glistening" after you mist it?

does it mean shinning? Tiny water droplets on the surface? OR what?

when I think of glistening I think of a hot ass girl coming out of the pool with the sunlight shinning on her tits. So when applying "glistening" to the casings it is kind of hard to determine the right amount.


Any help appreciated

whatever you do just don't mist the fungi directly. give it a good 4 or 5 squirts and seal it back up. what you are looking for is very very tiny breads of water. remember this is micro-biological meaning these beads of water have to be extremely small. a drop of water on the casing/cake may be a pond to the MICRO environment. hope that helps. good luck with the grow.

p.s. i think of the tits analogy too when i here that word.

light brown verm = way too dry
dark brown verm = good moisture.

basically you want wet down your casing layer til its a nice dark brown and "glistens" (i guess you could call them water droplets). You dont want to wet it down to the point of it leaving puddles on your casings.

Its also ok to get it a little too wet, dont worry about having it to be perfect, nothing wrong with a little extra moisture since thats what mushies thrive off of.
