hi all, i picked up my casing and dropped it, the insides fell out onto a plastic bag and basically shattered into peices, i managed to get most of it back into the casing tub, but the 50/50 mix is to broken up to jsut rearrange it and hope for the best, can i crumble it all up into pieces and add a layer of peat n hope for the best?
its my last casig and last of my spore s:(

they can recover, just hope that it wasnt comtaminated. maybe do a bleach water dunk? (200:1 water:bleach ratio, something like that? not sure exactly but too much bleach is bad)

maybe split it up into a few different containers, let the mycelium heal, and then re-case it altogether when you are sure its not contam'd

Search for "dropped my casing" and you'll get several dozen other sob stories mate . You can try to save or toss it. Personal preference. If it's big chunks use tooth picks to stick it back together. If not crumble and case.

You could do a 20% solution and dunk without anything bad happening.

I would just pick out a few good chunks of healthy mycelium to inoculate with, and start over with a new casing.
edited: Nevermind... you can't really use any new substrate with nutrients in it once your casing has been exposed to enough contams. If I were you, I'd just mix up what you have, put a fresh layer of casing on top, and see what happens, and just start a fresh batch.
