I ended up with more spawn than substrate in my tub?! Bulk! [PICS]
    #21952643 - 07/16/15 04:06 PM (8 years, 6 months ago)

Well I thought I had more Hpoo/straw than I really did. I'm using a 6qt container and have 2 quarts of spawn in there to like 1 quart of sub.

Will this be a problem, or is it just that much better?








I covered it up with the lid and I'll let it run for 7 days then fruit with a casing layer (disliking all the exposed grains for some reason)..I'm no expert though I'll leave the judgment up to ya'll:wink:

I'd case it after full colonization.

Pins tend to form on a less nutritious source rather than directly off of grains.

Will do! But won't more grains create a heavier flush of the same sized substrate with less grain?

grains dont hold much water so you're gonna need to fill 'er up if you want a kickass result.

Do you mean mist the casing layer (when I apply it) heavily...or apply a generous amount of casing?


I'm after the kickass result :wink:

It will be fine, but you will want to consider a casing at fruiting time to ensure a good pinning surface and to keep from drying out. The amount of water should be good for a great first flush, but you will need to dunk for a second. I  have done the same thing and gotten good results. Spawn is more difficult to produce so that is why most people do not have a higher spawn than sub ratio.
