what do you guys think it would be better to have a casing with thicker (3-4") substrate but with less surface area or a thinner (1-2") substrate with double surface area

3-4 is kinda thick for a casing. 2 will do just fine and provide a fine yield. Do 2, 2" thick casings.

You casing should be about 1/4 the depth of the substrate to a max of 1 inch.

the 2" substrate with more surface area will win every time
