Casing recommendation
    #6808765 - 04/19/07 01:15 PM (17 years, 8 months ago)

I took a 1QT jar of Cambodian and spawned it to coir in a 6QT tray.

Looks like I'll be ready to case within a day or two and I was wondering what everyone recommends to case it with. As of right now I plan on casing using the 50/50+ tek.

That's what I use. With 5-10% calcium carbonate, it's probably the best casing layer, though I'm always curious what others are using.

I'm going shopping today so I'd really appreciate some more recommendations.

I am about to case one soon and am in the same boat as you.
I was told from a very respected member to do the 50/50 and soak the peat in a lime bath. from hydrated lime and add oyster shell flour as a long term buffer. I was also told to use ph test strips to make sure that the ph is around 7.0 to 7.5.

try that if you can find the ingredients.

Maybe its not the best but Miracle Gro Moisture Control (MGMC) sure is easy. Do a search to find out more.
