noob question "wrong jars"
    #14127630 - 03/15/11 09:55 PM (12 years, 11 months ago)

when i first started.....i quickly went out and bought jar and of course they were the wrong type......i have 1 pint regular mouth jars....they are about done and luckly no contaminations.....(good so far for a noob) i did 6 jars and 4 are touching the bottom of the jar but not covering the bottom yet......the problem comes when i need to remove the cakes......(if they dont slide or come out the bottles which i dont think they will) should i break up cakes in the jar then use with a casing..........i really rushed into things and didnt read as much.......i did eventually get it right and got the right jars.....but i didnt want to throw away all that good stuff........HELP PLEASE

Which tek are you following?  Most likely, you can crumble the cakes in a plastic bag and then spawn them into a bulk substrate.

If they don't shrink up enough to slip out of the top, I would go ahead and lightly crack the jars open to remove the cakes as wholes.  This seems as if it would give you a higher chance at getting fruits at the cost of your jars rather than wasting all of your substrate and spores.

However, I am a complete novice and I wouldn't take what I say to heart if it doesn't sound like a good idea to you! :crazy2:

Do what you can to save the jars. They're useful for grains in the future (if you stick with it and 'graduate' to bulk techniques).

Brake them in side of a jar and case it! for sure!

I'm assuming you have quart jars of rye,wbs, or some sort of grain?? If they're grains just scoop them out w/ a clean spoon.  I hope you didn't do quart pf cakes. If so I would prob use a knife to sorta cut the cakes out of jar. Not sure if a spoon would bruise pf cakes? What were your plans for fruiting if you had bought wide mouth jars? I would never ever break open a perfectly good jar to get spawn out.. Work smarter not harder! Good luck!

i am using a shotgun style fruiting chamber.....i have already redone everything with the right 1/2 pint wide mouth (using BRF tek)....i just keep the quart jars to see what they would do.....now they ready to birth and no contaminations.....still have a week or two to go as the bottoms of the jars are not completely covered yet..........do i need to wait until the jar is fully colonized before i crumble up...i would like to get them in some recently purchased spawn bags...? any thoughts
