Newbie Casing Proposal
    #5508948 - 04/12/06 04:49 PM (17 years, 9 months ago)

Okay, I am a little confused after reading all the casing teks... So I am going to write a proposal and see if I am getting this right. Please critique and/or offer advice, thanks!

(I am not casing this grow, but the grow after.)

1. Using a disposeable aluminum foil deep pan, place a 50/50 perlite vermiculatie mixture.

2. Bake in the oven at 300 degrees for 30 minutes.
3. Let cool.
4. Take Your fully colonized cakes and break them up into pieces.
5. Spread the little cake pieces evenly throughout the pan.
6. Cover again with about a half inch of vermiculite.

Does this sound right? arent i supposed to add nutrient somehwre?

you say cover with verm you mean the 50/50? sounds good, you dont add nutrient because the casing holds water not nutes otherwise you run high/higher risk of contams. you should add a ph buffer to the 50/50

too many different ways to do it. read about casing, they have all kinds of recipes on the site., i use 50/50 verm/peat moss. just make sure you dont oversaturate or use too much, no more thean 1/2 inch thick, and thats if you have at least 3 inches of substae. and casing is a non-nutrecious layer.

dont forget that you want about 1/2 inch of moist sterile verm (PC or bake in oven bag) on the bottom. casing with HPOO or 50/50 coir & Verm. works the best as a top layer. make sure that your top layer is 1\4 - 1 1/2 inches deep. i prefer 1 inch personally.
