So one of my friends is thinking about growing an ohmatic monotub.
Here is what I understand you need (from inoc to tub)
-Mason jars (size is up to you) -Tyvek -Spore syringes (enough for 48 half pint jars, how many do you think you would need for this) -WBS -one pail -verm -coir -garbage bags -tubs -polyfill (I am just gonna tear up a pillow for this) -A pressure cooker of course
Anything that I am missing?

I am sure I can jimmy rig some sort of thing to get the holes goin.
Although the drill seems a lot easier, not to mention you can use it for the jar lids too.
How much do you think all this would cost?

Go to Walmart.com. They have the majority of your list on their website. And what you can't find there, use Google Shopping search. From what I see, you're looking at around $100-$200.

Silicone for making a self healing injection port, if you want to go that route. ( I just open my lid in a still air box) Pressure cooker is the most expensive thing on that list

I just lucked out and got one for 30 dollars.
How many spore syringes do you think i'll need for that?
I am thinking 5.

Nice You would only need one syringe if you do a grain to grain, but if you're like me and want a variety then get a couple. I personally think 5 is overkill. Unless you dislike trading. Good luck

Shit sorry I reread and seen 48 half pints. I don't know for that I use quarts and thought that was the route you were taking.

One of the sponsors here sells syringes and you get 1 free when you buy 1-4. So i figure I may as well get 5. That way i can get a variety going.
Mostly though i wanna grow penis envy. They aparantly have the best yields and most potency for a cube.
Albino would be anice novelty too.

Don't tear up a pillow. Polyfill is like 2 dollars. A pillow on the other hand can be expensive. Polyfill is usually in the sewing / craft section at places like walmart.

Also, 48 half pints = 12 quarts. By using the half pints, you're increasing your workload by 300%.

To 2nd getting fresh polyfill... If the pillow you decide to tear up is old and used, there's ganna be some funky shit in that polyfill!
Don't forget a $2 misting bottle, they're damned handy!
An aquarium tank thermometer might be handy too. Slap it on the side of the tub, they're super cheap.
An analog hydrometer is also nice. Check amazon, ~$8.
A lighter/butane torch for sterilization.
70% iso alcohol for sterilization.
If we're being thorough, paper towels.
Tape, hot glue, or silicone to seal up the injection site. Tape or hot glue are the real options if going through tyvek.
That 1-1.5cc's per jar is a steady 1-1.5cc regardless of size. Pint 1.25cc, quart 1.25cc. That's what I go with anyway and it works without issue.
If it's clever, might be worthwhile to grab a bag of gypsum. A little will go a long way here, so the smaller bags they sell at ace hardware should last long enough.
As far as strain varieties go, I've had very good luck with Equators. They're aggressive and put out great flushes. PES Amazonian was also very aggressive. I think any of those "jungle" varieties around the equator are pretty aggressive really.

Why would I need a misting bottle if I am doing an ohmatic? You shouldn't have to open them ever.

Alcohol does not sterilize, it sanitizes.
Chemicals sanitize, heat sterilizes.

Cubes are cubes.....there will always be genetic variances, even in the same syringe.
There is no variety of cube that is known to be "more aggressive" than any other.
