Round 2

I followed RRs advice on rye prep. Wow, I wish I would have found this the first time around. Seems like the right moisture content and the grains do not stick. After soaking and simmering I pc'd and let the jars cool. I sterilized a room and used about 1cc per qt jar through two holes. The weather has been very cool where I live and the growth has been slow but looks good to me. Any comments? Here is a pic of my two jars.

Remove the foil and you will see an increase in colinisation speed. The foil left on is not in the tek.
Just like pf jars, grain jars need gas exchange.

Veda_sticks-
Thanks for the advice. I do not have any tyvek on the jars to cover the holes. Should I still remove the foil? Do the inoculation holes neeed to be covered to prevent contams?
Thanks again.

How old are those jars??????????? why no filter????????????
Looks like good mycelium growth, However from the pics it looks wet to me. I always make sure there is no grain sticking to the sides. Have you shook them at all.

if you dont have any filter then no i would not remove the foil, next time use a filter.
Even if its just micropore tape it will do its job well.
Even polyfill salvage from a pillow will work (check the label to make sure its polyfill)

I shook the hell out of them today. The grains which had no growth rolled around with no problem. The grains with myc growth are a solid mass. I was going by a note which mentioned shaking around 30% colonization. Will I be able to utilize this rye? What would you recommend for future attempts? Thanks again. capta1n

I would like to spawn to bulk. What would you recommend I do after 100% colonization occurs to get this into a good sub?

I would fallow RR's video on the manure Tek. It works well and is not difficult to get right.

Wait till full 100% colonization then spawn to a bulk sub like dung or coir. If you have never spawned before use a higher spawn to sub ratio, like 1:3 or even 1:2.
IMO ohmatics monotub tek is the way to go. Here is a link to a pictorial. Ohmatic Monotub

Pardon me TheMushaman I didn't think anyone would be confused about who I was talking to. I will make a more concerted effort to type the right and whole name in the future.
