Couple questions before my first grow

Hi, I'm going to attempt to grow some mushrooms for myself and need a little help.
Ok... I have the Medium Presealable Autoclavable spawn bag that measures 18" high * 5.5" wide * 4" deep.
How much substrate should I use How do I sterilize the bag and where do I inject the spores since it doesn't have a needle hole in it?
The mushrooms I'm growing are right here http://ralphstersspores.com/index_files/Page602.html ... also how much would you estimate would grow. would it be enuf for me to Trip?
Thanks

You really need to read up on some general information, then return and ask more specific questions.

all I need to know is how much substrate do I fill the bag up with... I've looked up info on it and can't find anything. and should I just inject the spores in the middle part of the substrate then tape the HOLE back up? Then would I steam the bag with the substrate in it or do I have to sterilize the substrate W/O the bag

You can use as much as you want to fill it with. Just know the more, the longer it takes to colonize.
You will need to make your own injection port. Tie the top of the bag together and fill it with polyfill. Then inoculate through that.
PC the bag for 60 minutes at 15 psi.
