Casing Questions...?
    #7503124 - 10/09/07 09:10 PM (16 years, 3 months ago)

First off..I'm going to do the 60/40 verm/coir mix that's listed in the grow archives.

1. Is it necessary to cook it in the microwave?
2. After adding the casing to the top of my mycelium before pinning(and after), how do I tell if the casing gets too dry?
3. If it is too dry then what is the best way add moisture?

Coir is a very nutritious medium to use as casing mixture, it can overlay really easy. You should look into 50/50 mix with peat moss and verm. If you are dead set on using coir as casing, I have seen some recommend 70/30 ratio.

Yes, It would be best to pastuerize your casing material.

I also agree with the recommendation for peat/verm 50/50 mix.
