I made 10 jars of some BRF/verm for PF tek and was only able to do 5, so I fridged the other 5 for about a week and they worked just fine after I sterilized and knocked 'em up.
They're actually just about ready to be put in the FC now. I'd imagine if yours were put in the fridge overnight and PCd tomorrow you'd be fine.

It's totally fine. I make up jars the night before all the time and haven't had issue yet. It's only after you pressure cook that you don't want to leave them hanging around too long.

excuse me, but why in the world would you make 40 1/4 L jars instead of like 10 Liter jars? If you are going to case them it doesn't matter none.
if you intend to make cakes, have you done this before with success?
I PC'ed BRF jars with my own safe gas exchange lids with autohealing ports, and after about 8 months the jar i set aside for experiments is still contaminant free. It looks hella dry though, and weighs 8.9 OZ as opposed to 10.2 OZ months ago. The only problem i see is the jars drying out over time. If your PC'ed jars get contaminants without you touching them you want to review your lid TEK, because there is NO REASON A STERILE JAR SHOULD CONTAMINATED.
Other than that, germinated spores that were in there before are much easier to kill than spores. I can actually see it being beneficial to let the jar sit a day or two before PC'ing it, because you germinate everything in there. And then you kill it by PCing, young living organisms are much more sensitive to heat than spores.

i am asking why would you use QUART JARS (250ml) for making WBS spawn, as opposed to using LITER JARS (1000ml)?
Then i went ahead and assumed you were using the WBS to make "cakes" however that is possible. Because i just don't see why you would choose to go with QUART JARS for preparing spawn.
what are you doing?

says a 40 pound bag at the top....
Most teks here call for quarts of spawn, and losing a quart of spawn to a contaminant is better than losing a liter of spawn...people tell you to follow the tek to a T so, that's why a lot of people go with quarts I'd imagine.

i'm sorry but when someone reefers to a quart jar, as in QUARTER LITER jar they are referring to the 250ml jars used to make PF BRF cakes.
i just never even heard of it being used for grain spawn, that's all. And no, i'm not drunk. I don't see the advantage of using 4 x 250ml containers instead of using 1 x 1000ml container. imho using the 4x 250ml is more inoculation sites, is more places to screw up. I like shooting up 1 liter grain jars with LC and there was never any problems. The whole point of doing grains is to reduce the work you need to get to the fruit, and the more jars you're handling the more work you got.
But hey, i guess bottom line is that it doesn't matter what size container you use for grainspawn.

Wrong measuring... Quart is 1/4 gallon.

Dumb old metrics system! 1 Quart = 32 Oz ~ 946 mL

I only say they equal 1000ml because every single one of my "quart" jars says 1000ml on them.

I'm just quoting google, type in 1 Quart in the search box and hit enter. Its the first thing at the top of the screen. And yeah, I don't have any quarts right now but I am sure you are right.

Yeah, I know it's not quite a direct conversion... It depends on the quart jars. The Kerr ones don't say anything, but the Ball ones have metric measurements on the side. Even my "half gallon" jars are marked every 500ml. Go figure.
Personally I prefer the metric system.

why doesn't the world use the metric system by now? or rather, why do the states use the imperial system? It's the only place on this planet that uses such a weird convention. metric makes sense, SAE doesn't!
anyway, good luck with your grow now that the confusion is cleared up

They put up signs in the states in the 70's/80's for a bit, telling people how far shit was in kilometers and stuff, and people actually shot them down. The only thing metric here that's continuing to grow in popularity is 9mm bullets.
