About 6 1/3. You probably want at least double the amount of blanket first though

I would recommend getting the 66 qt version of the tub in the top pic.
That is what most of us use for monotubs with 1 brick of coir, 2 qts of verm, and 5 qts of water. Oh and a dash of gypsum is good too

And a minimum 6 quarts / litres of spawn but preferably 10

Hypothetically, what would happen if you used less than 6 quarts of spawn? Say, 3.5 quarts?

Would take longer to colonize, weaker flushes and more risk of contam

Kind of depends on the surface area of the bottom rather than the volume of the whole tub

I guess it would be almost double the amount for a 66qt.
Probably about triple the amount of blanket though Damn autocorrect!

Fill up the tub with water, one quart at a time, until the desired depth is reached.
This will give you a very rough estimate of how much substrate material will be needed.
