Title: nuetrience in popcorn
Post by: Vandal_xx on April 22, 2011, 03:28:23 PM
gonna do my first popcorn jars for a casing. I was reading that fruits from popcorn can be weak from lack of neutrience. Can I mix in some BRF to help that out?

Popcorn has as many nutes as any other grain, but fruits seem to turn out better, spawning to a bulk sub or rez effect. It's mainly for the moisture supply to the fruits.

Thanks for chiming in DUB. So as this is my first time doing anything but BRF cakes and one BRF case, you think I will have okay luck just casing the popcorn?

You can do it! To repeat my previous rant, dry the outside of the hydrated popcorn with paper towels, or hair dryer. Otherwise, you could also throw some dry vermiculite in with your jars to soak up excess moisture from the outside of the kernels. Otherwise sour rot can give you probs.
