If you crumble it up when it is less than 100% it will be susceptible to contamination because the mycelium is weaker then. Leave it in there until it's 100%.

yeah im betting it will at least take a month.

i think im going to wait untill the cakes fully colonize and do whatever i can to get them out and put them in my terrarium.

next time im using half pint jars, which i have already obtained.

im thinking about steralizing the half pints and taking some of the mycelium from the cakes after they are fully colonized and put them in the sterile half pints.

would that be a good idea?

If you're going to have to crumble it to get it out anyway, you might as well grate it into small bits and spawn it to horse poop!  Just do bulk trays because they're super easy and you can still use the shotgun FC.

could i just put about an inch of vermiculite on the bottom of a terrarium and break up the mycelium into about 1 inch pieces and spread it over the vermiculite?

Possibly mist the side of the terrarium for humidity?

From what I've read, a bottom layer of verm doesn't do anything, i dunno about using the terrarium itself like a monotub.

well i could use a clear plastic storage box and spread on the bottom of that.

should i even put anything under the mycelium or just put it in there?
