WormCastedWheatStraw (casing layer?)
    #6866658 -

I got 20/80 worm castings/wheatstraw spawned from colonized wbs of S.America strain. The casing is in a large aluminum turkey pan. I'm not sure if it should recieve a casing layer or not. I have heard mixed opinions about casing layers on a straw substrate.
Anyone have experience with a similar gro?

If the casing is in a large aluminum turkey pan, then it already has a casing. What are you trying to ask?

This is the reason new growers get so confused. Don't refer to your project as a casing. The casing is only the top non-nutritious layer, such as peatmoss/vermiculite. It's not a name for the project itself.

If you're trying to ask if your straw substrate should be cased, I've found straw performs just as well uncased.

I have never seen anything that resembles this visually. I dunno if it is strain or what, but they are S.Am. on WBS spawned to Wheat and Worm castings.
Any advice on what to do at this point?
