First time bulk on straw

Hey you all, I used to grow shrooms like 6 years back on cakes really amateuristic with low to medium results but I had quit for some reasons. Now I'm back in the saddle again and after a few cakes decide to go with grains. So I knocked up 3 jars of rye with a multi spore syringe of P.C. B+ which I spawned on pasteurized straw. Since it is my first time I do bulk I had way, way to less straw which I only noticed when I was spawning the straw. So I decided to divide the 3jars over 3 filter bags of straw (I couldn't wait any longer since some of myc was starting to turn yellow and the straw was ready to go). So now I have 2 bags of about 3,5quarts and one even smaller which are going strong (almost fully colonized) but are way to less to fruit separately. Now should I combine the 3 bags in a tub or pasteurize more straw and spawn once more or.......? And how do I go about? Can I just break up the bag like you would do with grains and divide or should I "bury" them in fresh fresh pasteurized straw... This is such a stupid fuck up but I don't where to go from here. P.S.: I read somewhere here on the forums that B+ can have some potency problems when grown on straw. Is this a fact or just a myth? I'm asking since I might have to pasteurize straw again I might as well just throw some horse dung and compost into the mix. Thx

don't spawn your bulk sub again, you can break them up into a tub(suitable size)and case it ps:it's a myth

no worries, always good to get answers but bulk subs don't tend to have that jump off ability like grains do and make shitty spawn, use the search bar and type in super spawning

Cheers man for the explanation. Another thing: is a casing really a plus or a need for cubensis? I thought they didn't need a casing or will I need one now that I'm gonna break up the myc. I just wanna keep it simple for my first time so any step I can do without I would leave unless it makes a huge diff.
