 Looking for a No Poo Spawn Tek

With 8-12 fully colonized pf jars of creepers, what would be a good spawn tek to use? I was thinking of using straw and perhaps something else, but no poo. The smell would not work. Are there any other bulk substrates that would work well?
Basically what would be best is a tek that has a high sucess rate but not nessicarily the greatest first time yeilds, because I will probly tweek the tek for better yeilds later.
I was also thinking about using millet in the bulk spawn, but Im curious as to how well that change in substrate would work (BRF -> Millet).
Im pretty much open to suggestions.

I don't know of anything other than straw, but straw works great without anything else IMOA. The only drawbacks are that it contams a little more easily than poo and it only produces 1, maybe 2 good flushes, but that 1st flush is quite impressive.

You could always multiply your jars by mixing with uncolonized substrate of the same type in lazy-mofo bags and then do some jumbo casings or flatcakes. You are effectively spawning bags with crumbled cakes, which, by the way, will normally colonize within a week or less.
BTW, properly prepared poo shouldn't smell any worse than rich soil.
Good luck

Hi,
What have you experienced using the worm castings compared to cow compost? I have only used cow compost before... What type of straw do you use and do you pasturize or sterilize?
I have a local source for Worm Casts but not for cow compost (that I have found yet)
Thanks for your imput.
