Cup of Poop instead of soup

This has probably been done before but here's what I'm going to do.
Tomorrow I'm going to pasteurize a hpoo+chicken-poo+coir combination. I've been thinking about doing this for a long while now. I like the idea of combining the power of poo with a nice fluffy fast colonizing coir. I'm going to layer my pasteurized poo and my colonized rye in some opaque dixey cups making sure to keep the rye away from the edges of the cups. I'm planning on using a spoon to fill the cups to help control the layers. Essentially the rye will be encased in a myco-poop container once fully colonized. Also I'm toying with the idea of not putting foil on top of the cups. Instead I would rubber band two coffee filters on top instead. Not sure if I'll do that or not. I want lots of fae but not at the risk of contaminations. Also Foil seems to collect a lot of moisture on it when I've cased in the past. I am guessing this is helping to prevent evaporation maybe? Anyway when they've fully colonized I'm going to birth half of the the poop cakes, dunk them, and roll them in vermiculite. The other half I'm going to case with MGMC right in the cup. Crazy talk you say? Well I guess we'll just see won't we.
I'll also be using crumbled cakes instead of rye for a few of these cups.
Pics to follow. For those of you that have followed my other experiments and grow logs you know basically what to expect in terms of documentation.

Three cheers for experimentation. Do a grow log if you can!
Tomorrow I'm spawning BRF cambodians to coir + composted cpoo + coffee.
I plan to do my first growlog

Chicken manure is an excellent supplement. Don't use it at over 5% of the total substrate though. Horse/cow manure, coir, coffee grinds, chicken manure, compost, etc., are all good and even better mixed together. The more ingredients in your substrate the better, provided all are fungi food. RR

Thanks RR I'm glad you said that I was going to use 10% I'll cut that down.
Good thinking veilbreaker. I think that's what I'll do instead of cluttering up the cult forum.
Ok folks I gotta go to the gym then come back and start my experiment. See you later.
