Straight vermiculite is the worst possible casing material for other than dunk and roll with cakes. Peat/verm or even potting soil is far superior. That's not to say it won't work, it will. You'll get more bang for the buck with a good casing layer though.

So what determines whether you use a casing or not in monotubs?

Some people say yes some say no.

I see, thanks for the info, would it be a good idea for me to dump out the vermiculite and replace it with a peat moss/vermiculite casing? Or should I just leave it as is
