all my eggs in one basket...?

How wise would it be for me to use all of my poo and about half my spawn in a monotub?
I'd hate to lose it all to a contam, but I feel reasonably confident that I can carry the spawn out in sterile enough procedures to prevent contams.
I'm going to mix the spawn in my bathroom. First i'll take out all cloth items, spray heavily with oust and wipe down everything with alchohol. Then I'll run the fan for awhile, shut it off and spray more oust, then proceed with mixing my spawn.
Other precautions I am taking include- dust mask, rubber gloves, hat for hair, and clean clothes.
Think I should go ahead with a monotub with all my poo? are chances pretty good to have a successful grow if i take all these precautions? I'd just hate to lose it all and be left with some wbs casings.

Well you know the risk...the only thing I can think of is maybe incubate it at a lower temp...
Why do you want or need to do it?

AK, Go for it, the way you described your technique is exactly as I do, with the exception of me using bleach to wipe everything down. It will work, 98% sure you'll be fine. Little casings kind of defeat the whole purpose of bulk casing... By dividing up the myc your not allowing the amount of space they need and they are able to get more nutrients. Sorry if this sounds funny, I'm mildly tripping and I'm stoned. Ive lost my ego lol

The reason why I want to go with a monotub setup is so it is completely automated. I dont want to have to do anything after spawning aside from casing it, then waiting to pick some shrooms.
I geuss i'm lazy 
I think i may go for it, im pretty confident with my sterility

Sounds like you are. I don't have a mono-tub but i have a 55 gallon rubbermaid with a fish-pump. So its fairly similar.

Is it wise? Not really. But with great risk comes great triumphs, or great failures. The only thing I would add is take your spawn and crumble it up inside a baggie and mix it up in the poo very well. Odds are a healthy spawn will take over

Its really not that hard to get it to go without contams. He has good sterile technique, he will be able to do it.
