Is there such a thing as too much spawn in a tub?

27 qt tub Rye spawn
I learned that, using Damion5050's coir Tek one time, if I put 4 quarts of spawn in each tub, I can make 3 tubs that have 3 1/2 inches depth.
Does this sound like it would become an issue for some reason or should I just expect quicker colonization times?

I think you're good on that tub. The distance between the mycelium inoculum is much shorter, and when the myc fluffs out and knits together the hyphal network, it should colonize quicker. The extra grains may improve yield in providing more nutrient reserve to fruits
Interested in seeing how this will turn out

Above a 1:1.5 ratio I find that you hit a point of diminished returns for the spawn committed. There will just not be enough water to properly support the amount of fruits that much nutrition is going to want to put up. Aborts galore.

Yeah I'd say this is more of a 1:1 ratio
Definitely noted, I'll do 3 jars for each tub from now on...
Do you think These will turn out okay or is it one of those things I'm just gonna have to wait and find out?

I doubt this will give you a better idea, but just to be safe.. This is a tub I did on the 13th and here's where it's at now. The depth of this one is 4 inches instead of 3.5 so it has a little more sub in it but still has 4 quarts.

I would just hit that with a light mist and fruit it.

Really? even though it's just been 4 days?

I fruit my tubs the day I spawn em now. 4 days is a good time for a spawn run that was done with a 1:1 ratio. If it took a week I would be suspicious.

Damn, I was expecting 2 weeks for the colonizing and 2 weeks for the fruiting  Can't say I'm upset about that.
Thanks dude, you're the shit.
This is actually the first time I taped up the holes. On my first bulk grow I just did poly from the beginning and it turned out great but wanted to see if taping it up for colonizing would give me better yields or not.

Any idea how long I should expect for fruiting with this ratio?

Impossible to say. Ratio has less to do with pin time than genetics will.
