How much grain spawn do I need for Monotub?
    #27028471 - 11/08/20 11:48 AM (3 years, 3 months ago)

Hello,

I've got myself a Monotub But I'm stuck! I can't work out how many jars of grain spawn I need to mix with my bulk substrate.

My tub is a 35L I think I'm going to fill it 3to4" deep but I want to know is there a way to work out how many jars of spawn I will need to mix
with my bulk substrate to get the best results without going over the top?

I use 4-5qt to my 62L tubs.  35L is small but at 4" deep 2 qt will serve you well. You have a very wide margin to work with on ratios, there is no exact science to it and everyone has a preference. As time goes on I am actually liking less spawn all the time. :shrug:

Thank you for your reply it helped!

How much would you recommend to fill your monotub?

The usual ratio would be 1:3 (spawn:substrate). To do the math one would need the area of the tub, not its volume.

1:3 is totally fine. Im working with closer to 1:4 and working towards less till flushes are impacted. Some folks do well with very low amounts of spawn. But high concentrations of spawn will colonize much faster.
