Has anyone ever heard or had success in mixing some gypsum in your substrate before PC it?? And if you have what the exact measurement be to add it in?

Well myc likes gypsum, but I think it would make BRF Cakes less stable, or crumbly which would be bad. Maybe if you added just a little it would have no negative effects.

Gypsum in rye helps it not clump, as well as providing calcium and sulfur, two nutrients needed by myc to fruit.

As far as bulk sub, you add 5-10% by volume of gypsum.

I remember RR talking about it. I believe he was recommending 1 tbs per 2 cups verm, 1 cup brf, 1 cup h2o. You might do a search though and see if you can find his post about it.

I've seen obvious improvements in a little side by side cake experiment, though it could be genetics as well.  Definitely recommend it.
