Vermiculite Ratio

[Taquiq]

I was searching the forums for the ratio of vermiculite to water. I saw lots of different answers so I was wondering what you guys use. Does the method you use last the whole incubation period or do you have to keep replenishing it with water?

I use the squeeze method with sealed containers, haven't needed to add more water so far.

If your incubation container is set up properly and you use the squeeze method as Tony mentioned, you should not have to add any additional water throughout a females full season...

I have a container from the start of last season in my incubator and the conditions are perfect... I am testing to see how long the humidity/water can be retained... I would think it will easily last the rest of this season...
