Time to Case?
    #5361802 - 03/03/06 02:38 PM (17 years, 10 months ago)









These have webs all over, but they are not solid white. Problem? I took a picture of the most scarcly cultivated part of any of the jars.

I have a Peat/Verm/Calcium Mixture to case with. I baked it for 30 minutes @ 400 deg.

Now, I was planning on using the same type of pyrex for my fruiting, but it won't fit in my tupperware, so I think I will just use the tupperware instead. Anything I need to do besides disinfect it? I have four almost spent cakes in there now that I will replace.

I was going to do 1/2" of perilite in the bottom of the tupperware, but then I saw someplace to use 1/2" vermiculite. I have some of both, so it doesn't matter to me.

Just looking for a little advice before I start casing.

Thanks

Don't case until jar is completely colonized. Then give them a couple of days to make sure the inside is complete. Don't put perlite under substrate. I don't use vermiculite under mine either. There is no real need.

ENJOY

Yeah let them finish colonizing and then some. don't ever let your shit touch the perlite its for humidity. I dont use a layer of verm either.

So just strait crumbles in the bottom, wait for growth to continue, and then cover with casing mixture?

Yep. I cover it till the mycelium pokes through casing. Then patch and fruit.

ENJOY

No bottom verm layers here ever either. Read my pinning strategy to learn more. GL and looking good so far bro!
