 Should I break it up? "myco-bag"

Hey guys,I have a question about my myco-bags.
It is day number 8 since I injected the myco-bags and I masaged and mixed everything around before injection and after I think,now at day 8,should I mix the bags up again?
I am thinking this may help with colonization even though I don't see mycelium yet,should I mix it up now,and should I keep mixxing them up every 3-4 days when I check on them?
I found the perfect place to but the myco-bags!
In my grow log I said I put 3 bags in a playstation 2 box and they fit great,but I have found that on top of my computer hard drive,wich stays at probably 80-85 should be a great place for the bags.
It won't get to hot and will never get to cold since I never turn it off anyway.
Just realy need to know if I should mix the substrate around now since its been 8 days?
Thanks!

Defently do NOT mix it now. This will only slow down colonization. I'd wait until its like 30 - 40% colonized then mix it. You should only have to do this once.

once you break it up after 40 percent colonization, would it be ok to put the bag on its side so more surface area is exposed?

It depends on what your intentions are with the bag. If you plan on fruiting it from the bag, It might be a good idea to leave it colonizing with the bag up so it has a nice platform to sit on and wont tip over. If you plan on using it to spawn some Poo/Straw then It does'nt matter.

Alright thanks!
I feel better now,because I waited to read what you guys would say,so I diden't mix it up.
I have read in the past though that mixing is a good idea after you inject though,to get the spores all over?
Also how long should I go without looking at the bags?
Is it not a good idea to look at the bags every day,should I just leave them for a week?
I was thinking every 3 days might be good,after 3 days I woulde't be able to stand leaving them be,I would want to see whats hapening!
Thanks!

You need to kick back in your lazy boy and stare at that bag till its at least 80% colonized.

LOL!
Thats almost the funnest thing I have ever heard!
Well don't have one of the chairs and I don't think the light will help it colonize at all so I will just check on them from time to time!
Thanks
