Smart move...;)
If its the same size as mine it should take about 50 quarts to fill up to 4-5 inch sub depth.

BTW. 3 more tubs. Dude that's overkill, not that overkill is bad in this case.
But if thats your plan i'd suggest getting more bulk substrate to mix with the coco coir. Each brick has about 8 quarts, you have 12 bricks so that about 96 quarts. You want atleast 40 quarts of substrate in a tub that size, so youll need to double your amount of substrate for 4 tubs.

Looking good. The tub color seems a little light though, might want to put some dark black duck tape around sides to avoid side fruiting, unless you dont mind that...

Hey bTW i saw you posted sometihng about running your coolmist on a timer to turn on 15 minutes 3 times a day. If you want optimal results you want a lot more FAE than that. RR recommends a few times within the hour! So you can imagine how much fresh air those mushies need. 2 minutes on every 15-20 minutes would be better.

At the beginning I was running the cool mist for 24/7. Then I went to Lowes and picked up 2 digital Timers which have 14 on/off switches per day. I put them to run 1 1/2 hours on and 30 minutes off(by functioning both timers as one unit), just so the cool mist could take a break to breath and cool down the engines every 2 hours.
More Idealy would have been to buy 3 timers to make it turn 30 minutes on 30 minutes off.
Or if you have enough money (Im buying one this month, was saving up the money for this one) you can buy one of these. http://www.littlegreenhouse.com/accessory/controls2.shtml
This way you can have it turn on several times within the hour in maybe 2 minute intervals. yhis would be the ideal FAE control, with several shorth air circulation within the hour.
Good luck hombre....

Did you pasteurize your coco coir or just add hot water to it? If you didnt pasteurize then this was the problem, specially with a bulk grow...
