Simple Casings Made Easy For NewBeez!
    #7485327 - 10/04/07 03:02 PM (16 years, 3 months ago)

For the new shroom grower sometimes the casing methods can drive one mad trying to figure it out.There are many ways to case and they all work well.Here is a way to do this that works!and is very simple to do.
(This Is My Opinion)if you do not agree that is fine, any comments good or bad are always welcome and if you have ANY questions I will be more than happy to answer them for you.
NOTE:this is not a new method just simple and straight to the point and hey newbeez it works just fine.
Simple Casing<><><><>
First off depending on the size of the casing you want any type of shallow tupperware contanier round or what not will work just fine,try to stick with one that is not to deep.Plus I would like to add I have used pie tins also which work great(but what about rust?)by the time your casings fruit the pie tin will have not started to rust yet.(NOTE)THAT IN MOST CASES YOUR PIE TINS WILL BE FINE AND AFTER FRUITING HAS STOPPED CAN BE WASHED AND USED AGIAN IF THERE IS NO SIGN OF RUST...
Now make shure your tupperware or tin is washed very well before use.
You will need your completed jars and vermiculite.
Now get a clean spray bottle and fill it with water(any kind of water is fine seeing on how I used southern california water with no problems)...
Layer the buttom of your plastic or tin with about a half a inch of vermiculite.Spray the first layer with water but do not drench it.
Break up your cakes good(dont worry you cant hurt them the mycellum is stronger then you think).Note:do not spray the mycellum with water!
After you have spread the broken up cakes in your casing cover the top with about another half inch of vermiculite, dont worry there is no need for massive amounts for the top layer.
Give a light spray all over the top of your casing and your off.After a few days you will see the mycellum start to grow all over the top(given that you have provided the right conditions)Be Patient!
Now I will get into the prime condition making for the casings to fruit(its simple and far from rocket science).
Conditions For Fruiting<><><><>
Ok! you can use a simple tek I have posted in the forum under,A Great Way To Grow Shr00ms...that works the best for my casings and I use this method all the time, but hey Ill post it in here agian for you...
I have used this method for years to grow my shrooms in a healthy enviroment as close to nature as possible, its cheap and easy.
Youll need 1 kid play tent(you can by at walmart or whatever) 1 plastic clear bag like they use to cover a love seat and 1 cool mist humidifier.READY?!
1.SET UP TENT
2.PUT CLEAR BAG OVER TENT
3.PUT COOL MISTER AT THE MOUTH OF THE TENT ABOUT HALF WAY IN THEN PLACE THE PLASTIC OVER THE MISTER BUT NOT OVER THE AIR VENT AND KINDA TUCK IT IN AND AROUND THE MISTER TO CLOSE IT OFF.
Thats the method. Now before you do the above place casings in tent then follow steps 1-3.
Note:Always check water level in the mister so it does not run out, you can keep it going 24hrs a day until you see your pins and then into happy good looking healthy shrooms.
This process does not take long at all, results may vary from person to person. GOOD LUCK!
Agian Questions or Comments even bad hey its all good I dont care either way(POST AWAY)!!!
Thanks For Reading This Hope It Helps:D

Nice tek, but try editing it into some kind of bullet format, if it's easier to read, more people will read it!

Other than that, looks good as far as I can tell.

Maybe boiling has worked for you cause there are few contams in your region?

Yet another way of presenting this!  LOL!  (no disrespect intended!)

For the new shroom grower sometimes the casing methods can drive one mad trying to figure it out.  Here is a way to do this that works!and is very simple to do.

Simple Casing<><><><>
  * First off depending on the size of the casing you want any type of shallow tupperware contanier round or what not will work just fine,try to stick with one that is not to deep

  * Now make sure your tupperware or tin is washed very well before use.

  * You will need your completed jars and vermiculite.

  * Now get a clean spray bottle and fill it with water(any kind of water    is fine seeing on how I used southern california water with no problems)...

  * Layer the bottom of your plastic or tin with about a half a inch of vermiculite. Spray the first layer with water but do not drench it.
Break up your cakes good(dont worry you cant hurt them the mycellum is stronger then you think). Note:do not spray the mycellum with water!

  * After you have spread the broken up cakes in your casing cover the top with about another half inch of vermiculite, dont worry there is no need for massive amounts for the top layer.
  * Give a light spray all over the top of your casing and your off.After a few days you will see the mycellum start to grow all over the top(given that you have provided the right conditions)Be Patient!
