50/50 worm caseing / coir
    #5682844 - 05/28/06 09:05 AM (17 years, 8 months ago)

Just wondering of anyone has had success with worm caseing and coir mixed at about 50/50 maybe with some crushed oyster shells in there as well?

What? I could be totally off but that sounds wrong. Worm caseings (castings?) are freakin worm poo. Worm poo = substrate, not casing.

Do 50/50 with peatmoss or something. I was using 60/40 coir/verm. Now i use a mix of around 40% verm, 40-50% peatmoss, 10-20% coir.

But yea... mix those castings in w/ some straw or something to make a good compost. But not for caseing.

Thank you bye!  :rolleyes:

I want to do it as a sub, but it is called worm caseing so sorry for the confusion.

The sub of I was thinking 50/50 coir worm caseing w/ crushed oyster shell in a mono tub.

The only reason is that I have to goto work and wanted to stop and set some suplies on my way there. Sorry for the inconvience :frown:

Worm castings, coir, cow manure, horse manure, compost, hemp fiber, straw, and dried seaweed all make excellent substrate; individually, or mixed in whatever proportions one has available. If the mix you brew up seems 'heavy' toss in some vermiculite to cut it.
