Casing / Mono tubing spawn bag substrate opinion

Hello all-
I have a few questions tonight, thanks for bearing with me, I am going to be attempting the simple coir tek for mono tubbing and casing I plant to use spawn bags as I do not have the proper flow hood for G2G I plan on ordering pre sterilized.
I am wondering if grain spawn bags will work the best for mono tubbing, or wild bird seed?
Can I use grain and wild bird seed substrates for both casing and mono tubbing? Can I use FHs simple coir tek with both of these substrates?
I appreciate any help

you don't need a flowhood for g2g wbs is grain spawn so i'm not sure where your going there and a casing llayer is something we put on top of our bulk subs but yes you can make trays and tubs no problem
-------------------- It doesn't matter what i think of you...all that matters is clean spawn
I'm tired do me a favor

Coolio, thats what I was trying to say tubs and trays is what I want to do at the same time to learn because Im obviously a newbie, heck seeing my spawn bags half colonized for the first time had me on cloud nine today!
I was just making sure I could use grain for both before starting 
Thanks brotha

Last question of the night, how many pounds of grain spawn would I need per mono tub? Also can I use PF cakes to spawn to monos if so how many I was thinking of using some I have colonizing, or should I just do trays with coir?

We measure in volume, not weight.
I would not use less than 4 quarts of spawn per tub, and no more than 10.
Anywhere in between should be ok.

Use at least 16 half pints per a whole brick of coir.
If you do not have 16 half pints, use less bulk substrate.
