This is my second grow, and I would like to grow bulk. This being stated I have a 5 pound bag and four quarts of rye seed on the way my question is whats the largest monotub that I could create with these materials?

Larger no tubs don't work as well to keep their micro environment level split up your spawn and substrate and put it into 66 quart tubs cut for a mono tub
You will be much happier

I'm not sure to be honest but when I do tubs I use 7-9 quarts of coir mixed with  1-3 quarts of verm and then my 5 quarts of spawn in total I put about 15 quarts of substrate/spawn into the mono tub for a depth of 3-4 inches
I don't know what 5 lbs of hpoo looks like or how much it is

I've found so many post detailing coir but none for horse dung.

Well the amount is the same man you just have to figure out how much that amount is based on how much you have
