So I've be reading about bulk grows when you break up the colonized cakes so you have more Grow points. What is that called? I wanna look up some tek for it or if anyone has a link or something, that'd be awesome.

its called spawning to bulk substrate. follow step 5 in my sig for an easy coir+verm substrate prep, and you can mix it all in a 27qt monotub as in step 4!
each pf jar is 1/4 of a grain jar qt so you need 10 cakes or so in a 27qt monotub.
you should also cut back on the verm in the substrate prep as pf-tek cakes already are 2/3 verm! half a brick of coir should suite your needs for 1 mini-mono.

Awesome, thank ya!
So I started to make a SGFC with a clear a 54 quart clear tote with a white lid, I have a the holes in one of the small sides made in the 2" by 2" grid pattern. Could I still manage to use this tote for a monotub? I'd just have to have a lot of duct tape that end, and it would be fine, right?

I just noticed that that tek is for 27 qt. I think I'm just gonna finish my SGFC for now, get a pe cubes Spore syringe, make a LC and do my grow in the SGFC and then do a bulk grow after in a new tote.

Edit: Lol a little late, yeah do that Other than the LC, which not many people here will recommend, especially not to newbs. They're very prone to contamination. Just use the syringe to noc up the cakes and skip the LC.
Hmmm. I was reading a lot about LCs last night and agar's baby bottle LC using silicone sealant as a self sealing port to insert the needle seemed Like an awesome idea. It seems easy enough too.
If you don't recommend LCs, any other suggestions to get the most that i can out of one syringe?

I'll have to learn to make a spore print, and what kind of cube would you recommend? I want something that would dropped a fair amount of spores, higher yield with decent Potency.

Anything but PE will be fine, just pick whatever sounds cool to you. You'll hear it a lot here but a cube is a cube.
When you're dealing with MS (multispore, like a print or syringe) innoculations there's no way to tell what kind of yield or potency you'll get, doesn't matter what cube you pick. When you get into agar is when you can start getting consistent results.
Here's a good read on the different varieties of cubes.

A cube is a cube ... Lol Yes I have been hearing that a lot. I looked at a easy agar tek using mini glad rounds containers and it seems petty easy. Are the finished products just used as cakes basically? Ima have to buy me a PC soon!

Pasty's tek is great 
You use the finished plate to inoculate grain(which you'll get into when you buy a PC) jars with. You can either cut it up into wedges or tiger drop it.
Yup, that's the one! But I have so much to learn and I can't wait!
I want to to just keep researching about all this stuff but it sucks doing it all on my iphone! /:

cubes are going to grow anyways. I dont even think of it as a tek anymore with cubes is more like testing their limits to find what wont work. i have seen them grown on shoes. your attention to detail gives you your yield.

that tek is for any amount, I think the recipe is 1brick coir + 2-3 qt's verm and that's for a 66qt tub. Its all ratios and can be used in any amount.
also what sanguine said, dont do lc just do spore syringes to pf tek, its "magic" and will probably be fine.
agar requires a pc and that's an investment. do some cakes in a mini mono and some in a sgfc and see how you like it! still cheap, PC's can be expensive.!
