If you add more colonized jars to shoeboxes than normal, is there faster colonization times/more mushrooms?

Normally id add like two colonized grain jars per shoeboxes, say I added 3 or something, would there be any benefit?

what size are the tubs?
fast colonization is probably the thing, but sounds like an overkill for a shoebox. Maybe you'd get off with bigger fruit/denser. I have not tried it so can't say from experience. you are using 2:1 ratio spawn/sub?

Hydration becomes the issue at some point. I like high ratio tubs sometimes. More grain equals less coir, coir is what provides the water. Basically makes things higher maintenance without worthwhile benefit. Colonization is obviously faster, however speed is not a good priority to always set in this hobby, that said it certainly works, mushrooms grow on pure spawn after all.

Yeah, maybe for a shoebox you'd have issues with not enough water. Otherwise, more spawn generally means more fruits. Good luck!

I guess if you got big shoeboxes it could work nice. I wonder if its worth it. It could condense things a little. Im just trying to make my plans ahead of time. These g2g are going super fast.

I think anything above 1:1 or even 2:1 spawn to bulk is too much. Where's all the hydration coming from ? don't make sense to go above 1:1 imo, but I'm no expert. We will see how my 5 shoeboxes coming up will do

Thinking the same, It might be better to have a GH with a fog machine for this kind of grow. you can always try tho.
