non - tapered jars

Whats up all. I have a question i need answered. So. this is my first attempt at growing. so when i went out to my local homes good stores i had a real problem finding the exact jars i needed. none of the places had half pint tapered jars. so i had to settle for 1 pint non - tapered jars (the one with the shoulders). my question is if i colonize these jars when they reach 100 percent will they be very dificult to get out of the jars due to the shoulders? should i just break the glass and take it out that way?

?f ur going pftek youll have one hell of a time spooning all that substrate out and you will have to go for casing. -> you want wide mouth jars for the pftek.
if you go grains youll be able to easily shake them up and pour them out without any problems. peace ohm

Non wide mouthed jars will work unless you are planning on doing cakes , and then you could plan on crubling them, then casing . So what are your plans ? Cakes ? Grains ? Crumbling of cakes to be cased ? Persoanlly , no matter what ,I would avoid breaking jars ...

Well heres the deal. I had a friend who happened to have six half pint tapered jars . so i inoculated those on monday and they are currently being colonized. the problem is they used to have jam and jellys in them. i washed them out very very good. through the wash with soap and water. so there was nothin in the jars. but since they were previosly used theres always a possibilty of contamination. so i heated the little punks in my pot and all that good stuff. now the reason i ask about the 1 pint shouldered jars is im planning on setting up two terreniums in the near future. I think my plan instead should be casings as it wouldnt matter if its crumbled up. but since this is my first atempt i xont know how successful it will be. so to answer your question yea imma do casings next.

Tapered jard will work then , just plan on when time comes to break up the sub , that you use a sterilized tool to do so , all will be good . As far as "how successful" you will be , only time and the Mushroom Goddess can answer that In future when cleaning jars that had stuff in them jellies etc , and contamed jars(projects gone bad ) , soak them in a 2% bleach solution for 30 mins - 1hr , this will assure you that they are clean and free of any potential nasties left behind previously .
