you can always start your own journal as well. it doesnt have to be on the forum boards. the nice part is you are essentially the mod of your journal and can give ppl the boot if you feel so inclined. active journals are visible here: https://www.shroomery.org/forums/journal.php so dont think nobody will see it

Hey Munchauzen how many quarts of spawn do you put in your shoebox I was wondering if it's ok to use only one quart of spawn instead of two and one quart of substrate

I honestly did 1 quart of spawn and 1 quart of substrate for the past year. a few weeks ago I switched to 1.5 quarts of spawn and 1.5 quarts of substrate. its pretty dry where i live and I was having to mist my 1 quart tubs pretty frequently. by using more material, they hold moisture better and dont dry out so fast. how fast they dry out depends on where you live (i live in a very arid desert like place) so you might not have the that problem. substrate depths are a matter of preference and your local conditions, so just do some tubs and find what works for you. itll take a few series to get it dialed in, but if you do between 1-2 quarts it wont be hard to find the sweet spot for you.

Question for you shoeboxers.
I can pull 6-8oz dry from a mono in 2-3 flushes.
How many shoeboxes does that take? Anyone ever meadure the biological efficiency of the shoebox?
What do yields look like?
It is a clean compact method for sure but is it worth it for bigger number yields?
8qts of of WBS to a brick of coir, some verm, gypsum, and coffee grounds and I get a wall to wall flush. Strictly speaking I'm looking for larger yield.

That is not bad considering the ease of dunking and disposal as well as isolating contam risk.

Smaller tubs may even make it a bit easier to pump out higher BE I would guess
It's not about the volume. It's all about clean spawn and proper contitions
