BRF/Verm/H2O Ratios
    #927591 - 10/03/02 03:50 AM (21 years, 5 months ago)

So far I have used this ratio:

2.667 parts Verm : 1 part BRF : 1 part H2O With respect to volume, of course.

I (in a parallel universe where such things are legal) have had some success but very slow colonistation times (3-4 months), or so I am told by the other me.

What other ratios have people used with success?
What are the pros and cons of altering amounts of substrate ingredients?
Would I be likely to experience faster colonisation with a different ratio of ingredients?

I am referring to PF style cakes of 1/2 pint size, growing B+.

I don't use H202 in PF cakes. I wasn't aware that anyone did.

I'm pretty sure I said nothing about H2O2.

the more brf you have the more food so the bigger the shrooms and more flushes..and you can play around with the measurements to find something you like :grin:

Thanks for that people :laugh: 

Psilocipher- but what are the disadvantages of having too much BRF?  Why don't we just use 90% BRF and grow many, massive shrooms??

cause the riceflour sticks together
find a balance between the most amount of nutricious substrate, and verm to loosen it up
i have tried 1:2 and 1:4 and less BRF seems speed up colonization cause the nutes are spread out more i guess, less to colonize overall as well
