Product Description
This is a blend of locally sourced horse manure and vermiculite, ready to use at field capacity (fully hydrated). This mix has been carefully pasteurised to ensure the most serious pathogens are eliminated whilst retaining many of its nutrients with the added benefit of vermiculite for added water retention and airation.
This mix can be added for extra nutrient composition to existing bulk substrates like Coir or CVG or can be used on its own. A downside to using a higher nutrient based substrate is the greater risk of contamination which increases over multiple flushes. That said it's ofter quicker to colonise and produces excellent results.

Product FAQs
- How do I use this item?
- This can be used on its own with coprophilous mushrooms or as an additive to a mushroom substrate (depending on your mushroom species) for experienced growers.
- Do I need to add any water?
- No - this substrate is already hydrated to field capacity. Field capacity relates to the relative moisture content of the soil required for the mushrooms fruiting bodies to harvest.
