i believe in coir. shit is sexy, fluffy, hold moisture very well and colonizes quickley. and provides some nice fruit when buffered with coffee and calcium carbonate.
-a tip for coir users. hydrate to field capacity, then wait like 30 minutes and hydrate a little more. because coir REALLY absorbs moisture(which is good) and you might end up with a dryer substrate after pasteurization.

well no need to get mad =)) off topic cause i dont want to talk about coirs nutrition values if i didnt believe in it i wouldnt use it =)
about the casing , since it is not fully colonized i wanted to watch the surface and i dont have peat moss , i can only order it which will arrive in 5 days ive got coir and verm , but since i dont trust in the casing itself didnt want to add - verm coir casing even if the coir was diluted . peace

haha.. I was just kidding.. coir and vermiculite works just as good, but you have to fight overlay with it, as it colonizes quickly... since your strain seems not to be colonizing that quick, a ph buffered 50/50 of coir and vermiculite would work fine.. just dont incubate it as long as you would a less nutritious casing... like peat or straight vermiculite..
just sterilize your casing layer, and you will have a barrier against contamination if you use the 50/50+ tek... the key is to ph your casing... contamination thrives in acidic mediums...
