    Mushroom Casing (substrate) is a non-nutritious moisture retaining layer to spread on the top and bottom of your mushroom substrate. This method is generally referred to as the "Bulk" method, Monotub, or Bulk Substrate. this is the popular alternative way to fruit your spawn bags or jars. We provide easy to follow instructions on how to use and create your bulk grow. The hardest part of this process is achieving the perfect ratios of substrate, casing and water. We've made it easy!

    Use the following amounts:

    • 1 Spawn bag per 5 pound bag of casing mix (using our 5grain or Rye spawn bag)
    • 6 Jars per 5 pound bag of casing mix (using our 1/2 pint substrate jars)
    • 2-3 5grain Jars (24oz or 30oz)
    • Shelf life of up to 6 months!

    I've been using this bulk mix for years now and absolutely love it, but I've recently found that freezing it produces even better results! It was already great and I didn't think it could get any better, but I had some extra and shoved it in the freezer. Twice now I've done this, and compared mycelium growth between fresh bags and thawed frozen bags, and holy crap the mycelium zooms in the stuff that was frozen prior, by FAR quicker and stronger with more flushes. I had two bags in the freezer for over a year and it's doing incredible things right now. How cool!

    Midwest is the BEST

    This is and always will be the only substrate I buy when it comes to bulk grows. I've used 3 times for 3 different grows and had nothing but success.
