Question on Spawn Ratio and Monotub Size for PE and B+

It looks like I am going to have five quarts of penis envy spawn (WBS) and five quarts of B+ spawn. The only other time I've ever done a mono tub I had 7 quarts of PE spawn and I used a 66qt tote for my mono tub and one brick of coir and 4.5 quarts of vermiculite.
What do I do for five quarts? Do I get a smaller tub? Use more vermiculite? Can experienced cultivators offer me some direction on this matter.

, just might take a wee bit longer to colonize with less spawn

5 quarts of spawn is pretty standard for a 66qt tub. Even if those 5 quarts are only loaded with 2 cups a piece you'll be fine. Before you were probably running a sub-optimally high spawn ratio that would require dunking to effectively flush, at least multiple times.
Most of the good growers on here also seem to prefer a thinner substrate. <3.5"
--------------------
I spawned some popcorn casings and had double-overlay cause I didn't put enough hydrogen peroxide in my automated aquarium mister. I only got one mushroom so I cut off the head part where the seeds fall from and put it in a jar of LC and sprayed it all over a tin of PF cakes I made with gravel, cardboard, and bisquick in my microwave. I think it will be good cause B+ is so potent. Triggered yet? Only a square would say "a cube is a cube."
No, this does not look right...
