What can I use instead of verm?
    #5554400 - 04/25/06 09:53 AM (17 years, 9 months ago)

I just picked my first flush! :smile:

Very nice! Only one of my cakes colonized and fruited, but I got 7 nice size caps last night.

I see some pins, so I am under the impression that it is now time to dunk and roll. . . Correct?

Or do I just let those pins grow like they are.

(Teks can be confusing)

ANYWAY

The same cat that knocked over my fruiting chamber last night spread my vermiculite all over the house and now I'm out.

They dont sell vermiculite around here, so I'm wondering what I could use as an alternative.

There really isn't one.

Best thing you can do is just dunk, and then don't bother rolling in verm.

When you say "I got 7 nice caps", It makes me think that you might only be keeping the caps of the mush and throwing the stems away. I assume your just using lingo I'm not used to. But I also wanna make sure ya know the stems are just as good as caps.

BTW. You really need to get rid of the cat, or get it some kind of cage. lol

cool i had to run to another town (larger) to visit my buddy and he picked up a bag for me. I can dunk and roll after all.

Wow. This is gonna be a great trip. :smile:

I'm about to do the entire PF Tek again, since I still have all the supplies. This time, I hope all my jars colonize (I have a few ideas of what I did  wrong the first time)

wish me luck!
