SGFC/Monotub hybrid for future plans and tek change.

I've taken a look around but can't seem to find posts specific to my needs (if you know of any please share).
It's my first grow so I started with the PF Tek. I'm trying to keep permanent builds and mods to a minimum. For a SAB I used plastic wrap on the top leaving tight arm holes, it was successful and I don't have a box with holes in it that will be rarely used.
I don't think I will stick with the pf tek in future, wanting to move to advanced teks. This could mean I'd create a SGFC for few uses now. Is there any way of making a hybrid or easily modifiable tub so I don't have to mod a new tub in future?
Also if there is potential to change teks while my jars colonise, I have 9 jars consisting of 3 types of spore, and one of the jars is multispore (syringe leftovers, an experiment). So i'd need at least 3 separate bulk/mono-substrates (leaving the multi-cake) that i'd like separate in one 80L tub.

Build a proper SAB, if you continue in this hobby you will be using it for basically everything you do.

Just build a sgfc and grow your cakes like normal people, It's done this way for a reason, it works, it works well. Sterilite tubs are pretty cheap, when you're done with your sgfc (which you will be when you go to bulk) just buy a new tub.

I'm not sure what you're getting at here, any syringe you use is multispore. Are you planning on spawning your cakes to cvg?

Get some 6QT Sterilite shoeboxes ($1 Each) and you can use them as trays in the SGFC, should hold 3-4, and each shoebox can hold 1-2 QT of spawn. Alternately it would be easier to just buy the shoeboxes for $1 each and use them as is like many of us.

I meant that I used three self-made syringes each with different strains of cubensis, and shot the remainder into a larger experimental jar just to see what would happen.
And I'm considering spawning cakes to bulk if it could yield better results, I thought i'd need ways to separate the strains so I could put them in the same 80L tub. (I ordered 4 80L tubs)
