Question on Tenn Stud

I've found a source of hpoo, and am waiting for a big batch to finish leeching and dry. I thought it would be good to do a comparison between the free stuff and some tenn stud poo.
Question is: If I buy a 20lb bag, what volume can I expect after it's hydrated?

Volume does not change, weight does. Adding water will make your manure heavier, obviously, but this does not change the volume. Dry volume = wet volume.
I think manure gains somewhere around 3x in water weight once properly hydrated. So, consider 20 LBS. to be 60 hydrated.

for sure, word for word. ^^^
and i would like to brag on Mike's behalf. it does take awhile to get the poo after you order but there are absolutely NO worries about shipping or discreetness i just wanna say that because i was skeptical about my order no worries, good shit.

Yea, but that doesn't answer the question. I have large mixing tubs, and want to make sure I buy enough. Any rough estimates on how many gallons I'll get from 20 lbs.
I could just wait until my local poo is dry, but I wanna know now so I don't have to wait

What is the volume of this product? One 5lb bag will fill a 12X12 container do a depth of about 4 inches.
It's right on their website FAQ, now do the math.

>>>>It's right on their website FAQ
sorry
>>>>now do the math.
2.5 gallons, so a 20lb bag should be about 10 gallons. I'm comming up with a different figure using Hippy Chick's data, but I only need 5-6 gallons, so either way, a bag'l do me. I'll have leftover, but you can never have too much hpoo!

HC's calcs will be different because she is referring to hydrated poo, so she gets 3x less per pound referenced.

i used one 5-lb bag of dry poo after pasteurizing, i spawned it into six 6-qt. rubbermaids (you could do 3 12-qt. dish tubs) this still gave me plenty of casing room in the tubs after a 3.5-4" poo/spawn layer

>>>>That would be equal to about 60 pounds , or about 15 gallons .
I gottcha, thanks. 15 is a lot I have another one of these (pic) in the works, it holds 6 gallons + casing with comfortable fruiting space. The tub on the floor is it's big brother, and would hold 15 gallons I'm thinking straw though, 60lbs of poo in one container would be a PITA.

I dig these tubs. 3.50 for the little ones, 6.50 for the larger, at home depot.
