Vermiculite for Mushrooms
Our professional-grade vermiculite absorbs and quickly releases moisture. A staple of the mushroom growing industry, vermiculite helps maintain a light fluffy casing layer that allows thick mycelium to prosper. In addition, cake-style grow methods, manure-based grow methods and straw-based methods rely on Vermiculite in their production. Aside from its moisture retaining abilities, when using vermiculite for mushrooms, it’s usually good practice to wear a face mask due to dust particles.
Sold in 18 Dry Quart Bags.
Pro Tip – Vermiculite is naturally sterile but, we always recommend sterilizing it prior to use just to be safe.
Don’t Forget:
- Organic Brown Rice Flour for cake-style methods.
- Peat Moss for casings and moisture retention.
- Hydrated Lime for your casings
