First bulk, 27qt mini mono (pics)

Thought I'd share the results of my first attempt at bulk. Thanks so much for all the knowledge shared here!
27qt Sterilite Model #1925 blue eclipse (16.5" L - 13" W - 12.25" H) 3" sub 5qt organic rye grain spawn (MS Amazonian inocced agar wedges) 5qt coir/verm/gypsum using Frank's prep & pasteurize tek (1 brick coir, 2qt fine grade verm, handful gypsum, 5qt water[makes enough for two tubs])
Mixed sub and spawn in large bowl for guaranteed even distribution, then transferred to lined tub. Let colonize for 10 days, then put into fruiting. 5 days later, pinning begins. First harvest came 7 days after that. Just over 3 weeks from spawning to first flush.
Between two of these tubs, I have harvested over 6oz dry, and am currently seeing pins, marking the beginning of their 3rd flush 
Here's a few pics from the 1st tub (1st flush)

Thanks guys! Forgot to add it was MS, Amazonian. Fixed the OP. 2nd flush came in way less dense, but much much larger fruits.

That's coo, so I take it between both tubs each one harvested 3 oz dry?

That would be my guess. Due to my drying setup I wasn't able to keep them separate after harvesting, but total weight from the first flushes was about 5.5oz. 2nd flush came in about 1/2oz each but I haven't been able to weigh them dry yet. So yeah, I'd say a little over 3oz dry per tub after the 2nd flush. Still more to come & this 3rd flush looks to have a much better pinset than the 2nd, so time will tell. I will update with final weights when the time comes.

Im using 71 qt tubs (cakes to bulk coir/verm) and I was just trying to get an idea on what I may, may not receive from the mushroom god's!

Best of luck with that! How many cakes did it take to make enough spawn for one of those? I ground up 3 of my BRF cakes and spawned them to the same CVG recipe I used for these monos, put the trays in my SGFC and they performed only slightly better than the cakes that were dunked & rolled in verm. I'd be curious to see the results from your setup.

I have the same tub and plan on using that to bulk. But I will have only 2 lbs of spawn and 5 pounds of sub. No casing is needed correct? and why not?

I did not use a casing layer. I've read that it's not necessary & my results can speak for that, however that's not to say a casing layer wouldn't improve the results. There's certainly room for improvement as this was only my first attempt at bulk. Didn't have my FAE dialed in properly as I was getting fuzzy feet. I'm still playing around with different amounts of polyfil to try and optimize FAE and humidity, but I can't complain about the yields thus far.

I just set that third pic as my wallpaper. It's like shroom art. I cant wait till I get more experienced and can have a grow like this. I'm on my firstBRF grow with sgfc and my first grow was nothing close to this. Thumbs up to ya buddy.

Thanks! If you have a PC and can get the ingredients, go for it! This is practically my first grow. I started with BRF cakes and once I had the jars made and colonizing, I decided to try bulk for shits and giggles since I had more inoculant on agar. I'm SOOOOO glad I did! It's honestly a LOT easier than doing cakes. I don't think I'll ever do cakes again. So yeah, if you've got a PC and can get a hold of the ingredients, just go for it! No need to wait until you get a BRF grow under your belt.
