Rice patty Question??

Ok so i have 12oz jars which have a low surface area on top and it's also really tall, so my question is if i turned them on their side to grow, would there be any negative effects? i wouldn't see why there would be, but i figured i would ask to be safe

no shit... i'm asking if you can place the patties on their sides because i'm using taller jars than the ones specd. in the pf tek (I'm using 12 oz jars as opposed to 1/2 pint jars)

Why you have to be rude? and theyre cakes not patties. well i suppose you could, it wont hurt anything. do you not have enough vertical space for 12 oz jars?

You managed to make a bad impression already, and you haven't even made 10 posts. Not impressed. To answer your question, I guess you could put it on it's side, I have done similar. I would suggest just to get the half/pint jars instead though, it's a measly 10$/12jars or so. Stick to the proven methods until you have a little bit more experience.

well the reason i'm asking is b/c my friend already has the 12 oz jars and doesn't want to spend extra money on the 1/2 pint if they don't have to and to answer demonics question, yea, that's the problem their facing. but do you guys think it would effect the yield at all laying them down on their sides?

Being unpleasant won't get you far in mycology.
If you lay them on their side they'll have less surface area to fruit from than if you left them standing straight up; through it might get an extra flush or two to compensate. Is there a specific reason they wish to place them on their sides?

now i don't know for sure, i'm no mycologist, but i think if you place them on their sides you would get a larger yield. you would have a higher surface area. ...or so i would think =?

I was debating this when I was choosing jars, on it's side it would have a more equal surface area, but standing straight it has more open area.

He was only asking for more information; would you have preferred he made assumptions and gave you confusing and useless information? Its fine though, I'm sure; I personally interpret hostility degrees stronger than it is usually intended.
