back and forth from tek to tek

i keep going back and forth on which way i would like to go. i was good with one way, the easy way, then some one had mentioned a different tek that will leave me with more yields, which is always great.
my only problem is i don't always have access to a computer so if i have any questions or need to do some research then I'm fucked.
heres what i have:
2 5 lb Manure Based Signature Substrate Bags 500cc's sterile LC 10cc's Penis Envy spore solution
my first thoughts were to inoculate the sterile LC with spore solution then inoculate the 2 bags with fully colonized lc and fruit right in the bag. this way we be much easier and wouldn't take that much care or work. the yields wont be great and it will be a pain trying to harvest, but all in all everything would run smoothly.
my other thought, well not mine, was to inoculate the sterile lc with spore solution, inoculate the 2 bags with fully colonized lc then let the bags colonize then crumble both bags into a tub, lay a thin layer of jiffy mix and mist/ fan until they start to pin. if i go this way then i will def have a larger yield, but it seems to me that i will be open to more contams. it also seems like there is much more to this tek and since i don't have access to a computer it will be much harder for me to learn.
i want to go with the second tek, but i don't think its that easy. any suggestions?
oh, i will also be moving in the beginning of August so i will have to move my grow. bags seem a little easier in this case.
-------------------- Learning to love life by living through loss and mistakes
Lessons learned then gradually surfacing
Letting go, stripping naked to scream
I am not perfect, nor do I strive to be
I am alive in this world of face-first falls and public breakdowns
I'm a retarded, disfigured clown
Dying to be heard for the simple art of letting this heavy wall finally fall
I'm an equal being of no race or color
A hallucination if you will
Sneaking into the lives of strangers and letting them fall apart
To a new rhythm, just to feel better

Sounds like from the 2nd tek you'll get a much larger return on your initial spawn amount.

If I was in your situation and I was about to grow and may not have access to a computer, then I would choose the tek that I thought was most likely to give me results, and I would print off all relevant information regarding that tek and basic growing in general.
If this is your first grow, then no matter which tek you choose it is likely that you'll have questions, so you'd be best to have as much material as you can in hard copy for reference.

Yeah that's good advice. I know how many questions I had when I did the first run through (and still have). It might be best to use the simpler grow bags for the whole process so you can avoid complications then use the spores from that batch to do more later on.
