If you want something easy, You can case with Miracle Grow: Moisture Control. 3$ a bag and easily sterilized.

50/50 Peat/Verm is also very good and what Ive been using most recently. but both MGMC and 50/50 have both given me better results than straight vermiculite casings.

OkOk

I simmered the seed in a pot, rinsed, simmered, rinsed in cold water.

It's draining now.

very true

the 5050+ is just adding something to up the ph... thats all... like oyster shell or lime or something to that effect...

I like verm because there is no mixing or anything like that... after I hydrate and drain it, its at field capacity... then I just bake for 30 minutes at 350... never had a contam.. but I am also OCD about my cleanliness..

for sure.. try both, and see what works... verm works great for me... 5050 for others.... give it a shot... you need vermiculite for both anyway.. try one tray with it and one tray 5050 and do a side by side comparison... we llloooovveee those here, and you might help some noob out...

I figure by the time I PC these jars I'll have fgured out or decided which way I plan to go as far as using the (hopefully un-contaminated)colonized jars.

Can I use the innc'd wbs to innoc other jars as in the rye seed method?

And does 100% of the sunflower seeds need tobe reoved, or just as much as posible?




    i don't remove any of the SF seeds. and i never have any contams:)

let it drain for a while.. in like, 20 minutes, shake it up a bit so all the excess water gets out.. then let it sit a lil longer... the reason most fail at grain their first time is because too much water...

you do have a pressure cooker right? you wont get them sterile without one...

me neither most of the time. Sometimes i do and it doesn't make any difference at all. The real key is moisture, split grain and starches.

I have a 27qt pressure cannr with psi gauge.

As soon as I'm confident thisis drained well, I'll fill 1 pint jars 1/2 way, and PC for 90 mins @ 15psi.

The problem with SF seeds isnt that they cause contamination, its just that they dont colonize for whatever reason.

you can load them up a bit more if you like, like 3/4 full if you are limited on jars.

I have 60 pint jars, but I only want to do a few in this "experimental" phase. Once I no longer feel lke a donkey and get more confidence I'l surely do a bigger batch.

I did 6 jars.

3/4 full, 2 coffee filters, poly/cap, ring snug. in that order

Amazing how much wasted seed I have left, probably enough for 5 more jars, the seed expaned some.

If these jars colinize right, I'll do the 50/50 tek. As these do their thing I'll do my homework on the 50/50 procedure.

Thanks for all the help with the seed.

I understand, but for someone who has never done a casing before I'll need to read a bit to understand it all.
