Opinions on Bulk Substrate Mix
    #7948067 - 01/28/08 09:57 PM (16 years, 4 days ago)

This is going to be my first bulk attempt and after months of researching I think I know what I want to use for a substrate. I wanted every-ones opinion before I pasteurize and do my spawn run.

60% Coir
15% Vermiculite
15% Spent Coffee Grounds
5% Aged Cured Poultry Manure
5% Ground Gypsum
(Lime as needed for to acquire proper PH)

Any thoughts or suggestions are more than welcome.

Scratch the hydrated lime on your bulk sub. That is for casings. Otherwise, sounds good... just don't burn it with the poultry manure.

Edit: When I got to thinking about it, I remembered that chicken manure is added as a nitrogen boost.. the same reason you are adding coffee grounds. So, you may want to reconsider what you add, and why before you do burn that bad boy. Also, this link advises caution when using chicken manure, as it is strong stuff. When using it maybe go with a mixture nearer to 2.5% as those guys recommend...
