Where the fuck would you fit 400 tubs?

Fuck that would be a lot of shrooms..

Say minimum of 5oz a tub

Your looking at 2,000oz which is about 125 POUNDS.

400 a pound at minimum your looking at 50 grand.

Damn.

Hideas.

Talk to the store owner and have them order it for you. They would probably give you a good discount over retail price.

I buy coir in the eleven pound brick form, it's by far the least expensive option for buying coir I've found.

An eleven pound brick of coir expands to roughly 2.5 cubic feet or 74 quarts.

Since you're saying you need 400 bricks and a "regular" brick typically yields 8 quarts of expanded coir, that means you need 3,200 quarts of coir.

If you were to buy the eleven pound bricks instead of the "regular size" bricks of coir, you would only need 44 bricks of coir instead of 400 (3200 quarts divided by the 74 quarts of coir the eleven pound brick equals 43.24 bricks, which I rounded up to 44).

11 pound brick of coir for $10.35 - http://www.growannex.com/growing-mediums/pro-coir-bale-11-lb
11 pound brick of coir for $12.95 - http://stores.homestead.com/GreenPathGardenSupply2/-strse-165/Procoir--Coir-Fiber/Detail.bok
11 pound brick of coir for $15.95 - http://www.amazon.com/Compressed-Fiber-Growing-Medium-Block/dp/B003MOD2HY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1346651337&sr=8-1&keywords=11lb+coir
11 pound brick of coir for $20.55 - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004D441ZO/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00

Those last two links have free shipping.

Now, if you do the math, since a "regular" brick of coir expands to 8 quarts, and there are roughly 74 quarts of coir in the eleven pound bricks, that means that each eleven pound brick is the equivalent of roughly 9.25 "regular size" bricks of coir.  Take the least expensive link from above, and it is the equivalent to paying $1.11 for a "regular size" brick of coir.

Find a retailer even remotely close to you that stocks the eleven pound bricks, or would be willing to order them for you (to reduce shipping cost), and you've got yourself what you need for much less than the $560 you said you wanted to stay below price wise.

I've personally used the coir from the very last link (the most expensive one...was before I found the less expensive options, but I haven't had to order any more since I placed my last order) without any issues at all.  However, I don't really care if trich is added or not.  I mean, I hydrate the brick (it takes 9 gallons of water) and then let it dry outside on a tarp for a couple of days.  If trich wasn't added originally, it sure as hell has a ton of trich spores by the time it's finished drying.

Proper pasteurization (no bucket tek, but real pasteurization) takes care of any mold spores.

Here is a pic of my last batch drying out:

Here, I'll fire two more links your way, since I'm bored and wanted to look into this a little further (it's an interesting question, and I like to consider myself a google ninja):

11 pound brick of coir for $6.50 - http://www.environmentalgreenproducts.com/store/coco-peat-coco-coir-coco-husk-fiber-pr-16340.html - The best part about that site, is they actually aim to sell wholesale.  There is a specific note on the order page that bulk pricing is available.  If it's only $6.50 to begin with, I can't imagine what their bulk pricing is.  They also link to their "retail store site" called "cosmiccoir.com" on that page, and they specifically mention palletized orders.

11 pound brick of coir for (call them for pricing) - http://vgrove.com/products/bulk.html - They don't mention their price, which is technically a good thing, since that means they really aim to be a bulk supplier (you normally have to call for prices when ordering things in bulk).
