Welp I got pins!!

this was my first grow using a kit... I didnt expect much after I learned how that wasn't a good idea. But we here now and we have PINS I also picked PE to use with these cakes... Another bad Idea.. And I didnt have any lights to use until today for a 12/12 lighting schedule But hey we live and we learn lol.. Anyway I think i am going to drill more holes in this SGFC because I am planing on doing a mini mono in it next. And a full size mono also. But here are the PICS.

Don't drill more holes or less holes in a SGFC just build it correctly
You want a whole new tub if you're making a mini mono

Wait your gonna make a mono in the SGFC? Thats not how that works fyi. for the SGFC you need your holes 2 inches apart all six sides. You dont need anymore holes. You were lazy as fuck, used a kit and its a miracle you have pins. Dont fuck with it.

Noted!
I am going to be getting 3 60qt tubs and a 1.5 inch hole saw bit tomorrow. If inject 4cc's of B+ into 4 3lb rye berry grain bag with that be enough for the 3 tubs?

I wouldn't use spores on bags. 4cc is a lot it only takes a few drops to start growth. Less is more when it comes to spores.
If you do use bags and spores to inoculate the bags. Then inoculate them the same day(once fully cooled down) or the next morning after sterilization. Bags take a long time to colonize with spores so you want to make sure you inoculated the bag asap. Sterilization is done for a window of time to achieve full colonization
Definitely stay away from premade pre-sterilized bags. Especially if using spores

MY opinion is to use the search function at the top of the page.

A couple CC should be fine.
Use a 1:2-2:1 ratio by volume

Goes to show how much the vendors know about our hobby. No one here works by weight and no one here knows how to convert that to volume.
Your best bet is measuring it yourself
6 pounds of substrate won't be the same volume as 6 pounds of spawn. So you can't make those assumptions to just use 3# and 6#

ok will do. Thanks I am still learning and unlike most noobs I read everything I come across just in this case I ordered before I could read what I needed to know. But I will try my best to give this next grow the best conditions I can. If the bags are not contaminated. I think I can pull it off with a dialed in Tub. My fingers are crossed.

OP, All teks here use volume as the unit of measurement not weight.
coir tek is about 80/20 coir/verm right? I'd really like to see someone scale that out by weight

3lbs is approximately 1.43 quarts by sugar weight. It will probably be off weight because lbs is the weight of something and a quart measures volume. Like bodi said, it's not used here.
If you want to know accurately what the conversion is. Get something like 3lbs of rice and put it in quarts jars, that will tell you what you're working with definitively.

Verm is so low density that if you do it by weight the ratios would be way differen than the volumetric ones.
Weight is pros better measurement for long term accuracy but its so easy to use volume in this hobby and it works well enough.(all American cooking is done by volume unlike Europe and professional kitchens in America)

Your current predicament contradicts this statement. I too am a noon but seem to find my answers to my questions reseaching the site while waiting for someone to answer it. Most of your questions are all over the site.
