it was injected with b+ spores.

vermiculite, brown rice flour, and distilled water was the substrate.

the jars are about 800 ml big.

i think next time im going to use 250ml jars because they are quicker and easier.

yeah.  you will probably have to break it up in the jar with a fork once it fully colonizes and case it.  you'll never get that thing out in one piece.  i think it's called crumble cake tek or something.

good luck

your jar in the pic isnt a wide mouth, wide mouth is where the top is as wide as the whole jar all the way down

edit: ^half pints

Those are wide mouth quart jars though.. You are pretty much doomed here buddy because it will take forever for them to colonize that is why people suggest using 1/2 pints..  Also on the wide mouth 1/2 pints the mouths are wider then the jars so the cakes slide right out.

alright, would it be possible to let them culminize some of the way then break it up and get them out and put them in new 1/2 pint jars?

Na not really I mean it is worth a shot the problem is that you will be breaking them up which will weaken the mycelium and leave them vulnerable to bacteria and molds..

well i think ill let them fully "Colonize" :smile: and if i have to ill turn the jar upside down and break it or something. ill get them out somehow.

Also, i just looked at them, i think as long as the cakes shrink a little they will be able to come right out.
