What to do next with my casing?
    #7537936 - 10/20/07 12:52 AM (16 years, 3 months ago)

Ok heres the run down. First grow, B+ took a month and a week to colonize two pint BRF jars. Did a dunk and roll with one of them, and a casing on other. I pasteurized some horse poo with like 20% verm added and just mixed my broken up BRF cake with it.Then I put lid on dish and its been in dark at 80F for a week now. What next, and do I let the whole thing colonize before putting it in the grow box? and should I case on top of that? Thank you much for any help.

put it in now you don't want the casing layer to colonize.

Ok so just put it in how it is or do I want to put something as a top layer?

After mixing your horse manure and spawn cakes, you should let that colonize fully, after which you may apply a thin casing layer on top. After that you can either put it directly into the fruiting chamber or allow it a few days to settle into the casing.

Did you case it yet, or just spawn the brf cakes to Hpoo?

if your trying to spawn the brf cakes to Hpoo then let the Hpoo colonize then case the top with 50/50peat,Verm

Ok I'm hearing two totally different things here. If I DO put another layer on should I use horse poo again or like a verm/coir/calcium mix? I do have two of these containers, you guys think I should try one each way maybe?

and yea I guess I am just spawning it to the horse poo...

No, Hpoo is a substrate not a casing.

use 50/50 peat,Verm or some other casing mix

I just didn't know if you could just grow it from the h poo spawn, will that work? and I do have coir/verm/calcium is this a good mix for h poo spawn?

I don't know for sure. but you should case then anyways for best results.

I have used 50/50 coir/Verm with good results.

I apologize if it was my post that had you confused, when I said case after colonizing I did mean with something other than hpoo. Additionally, I would strongly urge you to use something other than coir in your casing. Coir is a substrate, not a casing material. Use peat moss or just straight vermiculite.
