How many 1 pint jars (or quart) using rye berries would you need to put 3 inches of substrate layer in an 18 gal tub?
going for a monotub thing?!

Thats lame to use that much grainspawn... find a local vendor for horse poo (usually stables give it away for free, but i hear Worm Castings and HPoo compost from hardware store may work as a shitty substitute to the real thing)... make a badass WAY cheaper hpoo compost, then mix in only a few jars of grainspawn into a huge compost monotub. Bigger yield, better potency, WAY eassier to do, and WAY cheaper in the longrun.
Ohterwise, i would say like like 10-20 quart jars... but why? Horse poo is definately the way to go w/ something like this.

BPJohnny has an extremely valid point... and i was reccomending a better method WHILE also telling you what you wanted to know about your method, so before you go telling ppl who know more then you to stfu how about you consider your situation on this forum, and realize that everyone here, for the most part, has a valid reason to say what they say.

BTW: if you didnt catch it or figure it out by now, quart sized are uber 1337 over pint sized, you will be way better off in the longrun (Especially since you can eassily do grain 2 grain). Also, look into Liquid Innoculant, it will cut a week off your colonization times. I would provide a link, but i really dont care.

Measure the case that you will be using,
LxWxH= volume (for H I would use 3 inches)
http://www.unitcalc.com/calc_vap.php Then you can convert that to cups or something
That will give you the total amount. And then you can dived that into parts.
1 part can be spawned to 5 parts of substrate.
