my 1st casing !!!
    #5487719 - 04/06/06 08:17 PM (17 years, 9 months ago)

Hey, Hey what do you say???





I have 24 of them in total what a job with a PC that only holds 4  1Qt. jars at a time.  so let me know what you guys think so I can put my mind at ease.  I think the top layer looks a little thick but when I scratch the surface with a spoon the mycellium is right underneath, a little more then a 1/4 inch is that right? :crazy:

Looking good! 24, wow, you'll get a good haul!

Personally I use a fork :grin: Less damage to mycelium. The casing is a little thick from looking at the pics, might just be the side view.

Once mycelium starts to poke through, what I do is move some excess dirt onto the exposed area, as opposed to adding more. It's easier, and in my experience gives a better pinset.

Also, I haven't noticed better yields using a bottom casing. The mycelium gets more water, but it also spends energy growing through it.

Regardless, with 24 you're going to get a lot of shrooms :thumbup:

I gave up on bottom case, too many hidden contams

over all it looks good, put it in your incubator till you see growth, do have rubber maid lids right? What i do is drill two 1/4" holes w/ micro pore tape for air exchange

i assume that is WBS as a substrate, and what caseing tek did you use, if you don't mind me asking

No, those are grains.
