i have about ten square feet, seperated into three boxes, of 4" deep substrate of h/poo, wheat straw and wbs. it has been cased with coir verm all boxes had one hell of a pinset. all this is growing in a 6' x 6' x 8' room i have sealed off w/ plastic sheeting, 6 mil, and hooked up to humidifiers, venting and hepa filters. a couple timers as well as i work alot. anywho, i'm getting ready to pick first flush. what should i do before second flush? do i need to rehydrate substrate? or should i just patch, incubate an put back into fc? i really need help with this one. thanx

ideally you want to get as much moisture back into the sub as possible between flushes

There is a rule out there to never scrape. I think it was Roadkill who said put some water in your FC about a half an inch or so for about 12 hours then drain.
I'm almost positive it was Roadkill. I would check some other post and see. But what they are saying above is correct you want to rehydrate before your second flush.

goldie, with all the setup I would think you're capable of searching on the board.
That being said, I've done it for you (i suggest "rehydrate casing" as your search term).
I found this thread which I thought was very interesting

Rogers opinion:

My opinion:
Very thin new casing layer, spray down heavily.

Hope they help. Second flushes aren't all that challenging anyway so I'm sure you're going to be just fine.
