that after a few months of researching i am FINALLY getting started! way excited! got my first signs of mycellium growing in some quart WBS jars...oak ridge.
gonna make some grain LC and shoot up 6 jars for a mono 
waiting to see which looks healthier, the GT or the oak ridge, oak ridge is showing up faster thats for sure tho 
so excited!!
ALSO! i want to make a shout out to myco_mikey_mo for helpin me get a syringe, thanks bro!

no problem 
so far everything is going greater than i could imagine....it shows that research first, then question, then grow is the best way to go!

thanks 
just a better layout cause i think im going to start a grow log out of this thread...heres what im working with basically.
Currently have 12 jars filled with WBS, all pressure cooked, 6 of them are inoculated. 2 of the 6 are inoculated with Oak Ridge, the remaining 4 are inoculated with GT.
some dates...
Oakridge inoculated - 11/27 GT inoculated - 11/29
Shook both oakridge jars at about 20% on 12/03, have already made a full recovery and is spreading like wild fire :P
First signs of growth in 1 of the 4 GT jars was found this morning, 12/04, very minor tho.
thats all i got for now...when my bro comes by later ill be sure he gets some pictures of the oak ridge so i can put em on up

You knocked up on 11/27 and they were 20% colonized by the 3rd? Hmmm I think I'm doing something wrong. I have 5 jars of WBS that I knocked up on 11/20 and none of them are anywhere near 20%. 1 might be the 10% but the others only have a few dots of myc showing.
I'm assuming you used a spore syringe? how many cc per jar?
Good luck and have fun! I'll be keeping an on this thread.

hmmm maybe it wasnt all the way 20% just a guess :P what strain are you using? jar lid setup? yep i used a syringe i made and probably around 2-4cc per jar...those oak ridge spores were sitting in that syringe for about a week or two tho...maybe that could do something with it?
lil further update...
growth everywhere on the 2 oak ridge jars...so exciting!
2 of the 4 GT jars have minor growth! yay!
the only 2 that havent began or atleast that i can see are the ones i shook up after inoculation...just a little test i wanted to do

If you just want to inoculate 6 more quart jars than just do a grain-2-grain transfer with a single jar instead of mycelium water (A.K.A. grain LC).

I haven't really noticed a difference in colonization times between a week-old syringe and a syringe that has only been made up for five minutes. I don't really buy into the idea of "hydrating" spores. This doesn't seem to matter if we're talking about relatively fresh spores. But, I've certainly never worked with what we would consider really "old" spores.
I can use 1cc or a little less inoculant (always very "light" spore water), with a syringe i just made and see mycelium growing in less than 72 hours in my batch of jars.
I think the most important thing in seeing quick mycelium growth from M.S. is using fresh spores. And of course getting the moisture of your grains correct.
I really don't see the point in using 2-4cc of inoculant per quart jar. ?
Best of luck. ~P~

You don't want your quart jars more than 3/4 full. Even if you're not going to be doing a G2G later you should still only be filling your jars 2/3.
You should be able to hit 8-10 jars with a quart of grain doing G2G. ~P~
