I need advise...

Ok so SWIM inoculated 5 jars on the 18th of this month and another 5 jars on the 20th of this month. The jars that were inoculated on the 20th are starting to grow myc but the jars from the 18th still look empty...... no growth... nothing.
Should SWIM call it a bad batch of spores and get rid of the contents from the jars that are not growing? Or should she wait a little bit long to see what happens?

Patience is key! They've only been sitting there 9 days. Ive had jars take 3 weeks before noticable growth.

from spore, right? pf-tek style jars?
you can let those old jars swim a bit more, but if you have zero growth after 14-20+ days, just start fresh... or figure out how to do grain transfers to expand your myc.
good luck on those new jars and keep swimming

WOW that is a long time...Hearing that I will tell SWIM to let them sit a bit longer.... she is very excited about this new hobby, and patience is hard for her to maintain with the excitement of everything.

Yes SWIM used spore syringes strain- Amazon (she figured she would go with this strain as the hobby is new to her, she also has Brazil and Ban something something strain.)
BRF cakes She has been trying to do liquid culture to try and inoculate a larger substrate from grain. She has been looking around the board a bit trying to get some more info on the grain to grain as she would like to start doing bulk sub. As this grow is removing her real mushroom virginity cherry she wanted to do the first one small to try and get used to all the variables that come into play.
