sterilizing VS pasteurizing
    #5657788 - 05/21/06 07:50 PM (17 years, 8 months ago)

OK so I am doing my first Hpoo grow, and my first 50/50 (I've always
used verm which I just threw in the oven) I just got done pasteurizing
the casing mix and I'm wondering why? are there really that many
benefits to pasteurizing over sterilizing? its alot of extra work so
what makes it worth it?

Sterilizing kills things you want alive. By killing these contam's come faster.

I'm not seeing this . I started sterilizing my 50/50+ when I switched to it 2 months ago and haven't seen any contams yet.

My green house casings are on their fourth and fifth flushes and haven't lost one yet .

If it's pH balanced and moistened properly, it shouldn't matter.
