Casing Moisture Q
    #7535960 - 10/19/07 03:26 PM (16 years, 3 months ago)

I will be casing my cakes soon using 60/40. After doing some research and finding differing opinions, I will now ask 2 Questions.

1) Should i dunk cakes prior to casing?

2) Will casings prosper in rH levels of 90-92%? Some say yes, some say no. Moreover, will casings that are birthed directly into FC, skipping Incubation prosper in higher rH environment?

Opinions?

When breaking up cakes to case, there is no need to dunk. The casing layer supplies the moisture.

You'll do better with mid to upper 90% humidity. The higher the humidity, the more air exchange you can supply without excessively drying out your casing layer. Don't forget to mist daily to replace the moisture that evaporates. Good luck in your grow!

When you say

"Don't forget to mist daily to replace the moisture that evaporates"

Do you mean the casing layer, or the FC? I am using a PMP and just want to be crystal here..

I mean to mist the casing layer itself to replace what evaporates.
