I've used 3 qts of spawn to 2qts verm and 1 brick of coir many times and my 64qt monotubs colonized and produced well. Five quarts of spawn to a brick of coir and 2 qts verm works better. Never tried 10qts...sounds like overkill.

you know what man, i think i know what is the problem. Quarts are the big jars. is that a quart? sorry dude this dont exist in my country.
so since i didnt measure the spawn i just put 7 of my not even jars, they are glasses with foil of 250 ml each, so that means that i put 1.8 jars, thats nothing.. this time ill put 16 of my glasses equal 4 quarts.. that was the damn problem.. okay no failures next time, i got it. Thanks guys!!
One more question, how do i dunk the substance that is in a piece of plastic bag? Do i just put it in the sync and poor water for some minutes, let drain and place back to the tub, or how do you guys do it.. anyone? thanks!!

I had a feeling you weren't using actual canning jars. That's where your problems are coming from. You need to invest in actual canning jars. The following are in order from left to right: Fancy 1/2 pints, standard wide-mouth 1/2 pints, WM pint & WM Quart:

I'm only going by your pictures.... but you should also probably have your chambers alittle more distance from the walls. You are sort of blocking off the air flow design by having them stuffed in a corner. Anyway, good luck.

No reason to be 100% exact. 250mL = 1 cup, roughly. Just multiply 1*4*10=40 jars per monotub. Make sure to brush off the dry verm layer before spawning to bulk.
