 My 12 Little Jars (PIC) Can I Fruit?

Here's a pic of my 12 jars that I believe have stalled. I'm thinking it's so close to 100% (From what I can see) that not trying to birth might be silly.
What do you guys think?

FYI: By 'stalled' I mean for about a month.

The very top there is possibly dried out. Did you shake them prior to the stall?
I would shake them, wait 4 days or so and then do what you will with them.

If they have all stalled for a month I would open one to investigate the situation.
I would also definitely turn them all upside down to see if co2 buildup is the issue.
If nothing worked then I would case them after first making sure to remove as much of the uncolonized substrate as possible.
Others will have their opinions though, dunking isn't my forte` so wait to see what the dunkers here have to say.

I would shake'em up abit then wait acouple more days then case them little guys up.
VERY FIRST time i tried to grow i didn't know they needed air  so they stalled about 80% done. i found out later (when i tossed one in the trash) that they grow WITH air.

Aaaah this thread has answered so many questions about my first sketchy attempt. Sounds just like my first batch (ever) which i just put into the FC HA (is now miraculously fruiting nicely). 3 of the jars died. One day just stopped growing. Unfortunately I didnt find this board until after i had PC'd and innoc'd. Didint know a THING about FAE and those mothers were air tight. Not to mention my apt is tiny and temps got up to around 94F at times with this brutal summer we've had (not to mention my sucky AC). Explains why the process took so long. Now i'm all about the tyvek lids, LC, and DIY Magnetic stirrers :-D. Next batch will surely be a success tho i really lucked out the way this one is looking so far. Shows you how resilliant this myco stuff can be at times. I heart my new hobby.

Update:
Yes, these jars were shaken before.
So here's what I did over the weekend.
Cased all those badboys, getting rid of any loose seed. Though the middle of the jars were not not nearly full of myc as the sides, it still had some coverage and 'clumped' together.
I cased it in 50/50+ (Hydrated Lime and Gypsum as per RR's instruction). I have a pH of between 8 and 8.5 =).
I put it in a clear container so I can see how the myc reacts to the casing soil. Not to worry, it is in a dark dark closet unless I am taking a peek. And once I actually fruit the container, I will cover up the sides so that it becomes opaque.
Everyone pray for me, because if I have success, it would be awesome!

As stated, the jars haven't grown in several weeks, so that 'amost ready' is as good as it was going to get.
Update:
Can't see any Myc growing into the casing layer (clear container for now if you recall), but it's only been 2 days. I can see lots of water droplets from the casing soil, so I hope that boosts the myc below.
So much anticipation

the one on the top right and top left look a little behind so i would not case those yet..... but all of the rest are ready to go.......... next time don't fill so closely to the top...only use about half the jar when filling. that way you can shake easily. this will help you colonize in about 15 days.

^ lol. 50/50 Lime/Gypsum would make a really dusty casing soil.
I did 50/50+, which is 50% verm, 50% peat, and then added Hydrated Lime for pH correction. Gypsum was added as well, as per RR's recommendations

Yeah, that would be proper procedure.

Update:
Yay! On day 4 now, and the myc that is nearest to the casing soil appears to be getting fluffier, so I have a feeling this will be a success story after all.

Update:
On Day 5 I patched the casing in roughly 12 little spots. All along the perimeter of my casing container. I have a feeling by tomorrow night I will see other spots poke out, and that is when I will place it in the fruiting chamber.
Things are looking a lot brighter today
