Use the recipe  here . Wetting the verm to field capacity works better for me than using a standard given amount. Never used to have any problems this way. :smile:

Ok when you say field const. you mean when i can squeeze it and barely anything comes out?




Yes.  That's the way I do it, and it seem to work really well. Just mix it in the bowl like the tek states. When tipped, the water should puddle a little. I haven't checked to see what the exact ratio comes out to be, but as long as you keep the BRF and Verm ratios where they should be you should be fine.  :smile:

Like Bruiser said, tip the bowl, don?t squeeze vermiculite.

I've always mixed mine to the PF measurements. BUT!, I always mix one jars worth at a time. Same consistency for every jar, never a problem.
Good luck!

Yes, It takes a lot freakin longer  :frown: I'm probably a little TOO anal in my technique.
All my jars colonize equally and are ready for casing at the same time. I found that mass mixing gave me either too much, or too little water content-stagnant growth or contams.
I kinda enjoy the process though. A little extra time now yields success.

i don't grow, but if i was to hypothetically grow, i probably would have found that when one puts to much water in the verm, just throw it in a strainer and squeeze all the excess water out. i had a dream that i was growing and my shroomies grew great after that...so you can always adjust the water level. at least, in my dreams i've always been able too. never failed, but maybe i'm lucky.

Peace and Love to all!
