for an upcoming bulk grow i will be spawning as many qts as possible into 24 qts total, for 4 tubs.

i'm in a pinch for time as i am relocating on march 1st. i have 12 qts of Costa Rican, 15 quarts of Koh Sumi, and 14 qt's of Puerto Rican all g2g transfers from isolated 1st gen clones. all of which were transfered yesterday. (i estimate 100% colonization between feb 12th, and 14th)

i need to use this spawn for 4 tubs which will require a whole of 24 qts each, i have plenty of substrate, but i am shooting for spawning the highest ratios possible for speed reasons.

koh sumi is from what a gather a lower yielding strain so it wouldnt make much sense to spawn 7 1/2 each into 2 tubs. Puerto Ricans have very fast colonization so i wouldnt think this would be the best candidate for spawning to 2 tubs. the costa ricans i only have 12 qts of so i dont think i should split them up.

help me out here. what should i do optimally to be done by march 1st, and also get the most from what i've got?

They probably don't have time. You can put the jars in the refrigerator now to slow down colonization and use them after the move. Your best bet for a quick flush would be to simply case the grains in small trays, skipping the bulk substrate part. It will still be pushing it time-wise.

the only problem with slowing growth and transporting is im moving across the country. most of all the jars minus the koh sumi will surely be done within the next 3 days. i will probably spawn all i can until the 14th hits, then ill make trays with stragglers. i don't have an exact departure date, it all depends on income taxes.

can you re-assure me they will be done at least close to Mar. 1st? or is the whole thing gonna end up a pain in the ass?

I doubt seriously you can get a flush by march 1, but it could be close. Just don't push it by trying to case the grains too early. Let them sit after they appear fully colonized for a few days. Break them up and apply 1/4" or so of casing, and then cover with foil for a week. After that, which is going to be around march 1, expose to fruiting conditions and expect to harvest a week or two later.
