"ok now i filled in the holes. sprayed with water, back in F.C... at this point RH should be  90 or 95+"

95 and up.
If water starts to pool on the casings your RH is to high.

Yeah me too~! Learning that is .. I copied you fattrout on lots of things, plus reading all the posts.  When people want to help with good advice and I understand it I try it out myself.  I am doing the caseings too .. but for me it seems to be a lot more than I need.  I may not do them very often but I really like this alot.

Its a cased substrate, not casing. Casing is the act of applyhing a casing layer.

Also, that looks like coir, which would have been better used as a bulk susbtrate, and just fruit incaused. Unless that is what you did, spawn to coir which would then just be a bulk substrate;

veda_sticks

Great work nonetheless. those look good!

also, you cant have to much rh. 99-100% is deal, and you cant get higher than 100% anyway

Hey Trout...how many cakes is that in there?  Did you crumble them or just put them in whole?

fattrout

yooo crazyd, i crumbled 2 cakes in the pan. about a 1/2 inch of casing mix on top...

I just used the same method that fattrout has described and can say I am very happy with the results. I harvested 110 grams (wet) on my first flush. Also there were almost no aborts at all. I started three more loaf pans yesterday and am looking forward to similar results.
