Monotub amounts
    #7972636 - 02/03/08 11:59 AM (15 years, 11 months ago)

Im planning on a monotub grow consisting of grain spawning to hpoo/straw. How much spawn, hpoo mix, and casing do i need for a 21 gallon tub?

I heard that it should take 3qts of casing for a 21 gallon tub.
Can anyone help me out?

I try for about 5" to 6" of substrate in my monotubs... Use this calculator to figure out how much substrate and spawn you need...

As far as casing material you just need enough to have about a half inch layer over your colonized substrate.

Just decide how much depth you want to use. I like 4inches. Measure from the bottom of the tube all the way around with a ruler and mark it with a sharpie. Now just trace it around so that you have your depth marked. Now fill the tube with your substrate to your line. Now youll know how much hpoo you need. Just take it out and pasterize it. As to how many jars of mycelium youll need that I dont know.
