How many jars should go in my monotub?
    #5856350 - 07/13/06 10:42 PM (17 years, 6 months ago)

I have a few questions about my grow. I've been searching the forum but haven't found answers.

This is my first grow, and I'm going to go LC -> BRF cakes -> Hpoo.

I want to yield a lot of mushrooms, and I've read that a monotub hpoo grow is fairly easy and very maintenance free, but I don't know how many cakes I should use. For the monotub, I've got a clear 62 Qt (15.5 gal) bin. How many cakes should I put in it, should I use multiple tubs to get bigger yields? I'm going to inoculate 12 half-pint cakes, should I just break all of them up and mix them with hpoo in the same tub? Should I use regular 50/50+ 'Jiffy Mix' or is that inappropriate for monotub grows?

Also, what kinds of yields have you guys seen respectively with the number of jars used? I'm not asking how much I'LL get, I'm just curious about what kind of yields you guys have been getting with your own monotubs, just so I have some benchmarks.

not sure the quantity you want, but i know for a fact jiffy mix works as a casing layer.

its basically vermiculite, peat moss and hydrated lime... and it's already ph balanced for 7-7.5.

if you can find jiffy mix, use it! it's a lot less hassle than mixing your own verm/peat moss and then trying to balance it yourself! the best part, it's cheaper than buying a bag of peat moss, a bag of verm, and some hydrated lime :P

What EXACTLY is jiffy mix composed of? I searched google for a bit and couldn't find the exact ingredients..
