casing question
    #7424525 - 09/18/07 04:44 PM (16 years, 4 months ago)

does the depth of the casing really matter. mine is kind of deep compared to how low the substrate comes up but it shouldnt matter right as long as the casing fits inside the fruiting chamber without touching the sides???

how many rye jars do you think a one pound bag of 50/50 would take care of using it as the casing and also as the bottom layer

You don't want the casing more than 1/4 as deep as the substrate, and probably not more than an inch no matter what. Commercial Agaricus growers use 1-2" on substrates of 8-12 inches. For what you are talking about, a half inch is probably good.
