A bunch of small or a few big??
    #5477686 - 04/04/06 01:06 AM (17 years, 9 months ago)

im wondering if instead of making 3 or 4 largeish casings and fruiting them in an fc, maybe i should make a bunch of smaller casings in say plastic cups inside the fc. Would this method maybe get the maximum use out of all your mix and possibly cut down on contams as well? because you could just throw out the contamed cup instead of trying to do surgery.

I just feel that alot of the myco potensal is lost using large thick casings?

Alot of potential is gained when creating a nice large network that can work together, when properly done, to get many medium sized mushrooms.

Well you never want to make a substrate more than 5 inches thick, and imo smaller casings will give a little more yield because of more surface area. Also if you do one big casing, you could end up with one big contammed casing.
