Growing from spawn bag to mono tub?

I dont have a LFH
My SAB experiences have not been the best due to my growing environment(most likely)
I was thinking of cutting G2G
So I wanted to do spawn bag to Mono
Bad or good idea why or why not
Pros
No G2G Easier to make Easier to break up grains and look for contams Easy to soak with water then go straight to a mono with little open air contact No rusty lids
Cons
Longer single container colonization times Gotta make a port on each ( no biggy really) Bags ripping

I know everyone hates on LC but you could make one jar a master GLC and then use SHIP and syringe to inoc new jars rather than G2G. Obviously there's still room for error but unless you want to get better at your sterile technique you might have better success this way.
Or of course grow bags would work too.

For cubes I agree that lc,s aren't that great but they pull there weight with more exotic species

Do you need a house call? I would love to come by and see what you do so I can figure out why you have so much trouble.
But, bags to mono is fine. Many people do it.
Bags take longer to PC and can be a little tricky to get moisture right.
If you go the LC route, make an agar LC.

I decided long ago that LC would not be part of process due to its many complication with much easier ways available
Well I grow in a closet for one
And my smell sucks for when I smell jars to use in tubs
I think pasteurizing at the right temperature will help greatly , so I should be pretty good from now on . *finger crossed*
