Should I shake these jars up?
    #14169476 - 03/23/11 11:36 AM (12 years, 10 months ago)

i incoluated 3 jars: 2 half gallons and 1 quart jar with some left over Burma spores i had from a grow a year or so back. the quart jar didnt do anything at all, but the 2 half gallon jars have some nice mycelium growing in it.

its been 10 days since i shot them up. this is what they look like right now.



this is my first time with rye berries (successful time anyway) so idk if i should shake them up yet or not. and how much do i shake them up?

If the only myc you have is on top then I would wait another week. You want 20%

:whathesaid: one week will probably serve you right.

That's a quart jar. I shook about 3 days after that pic

Also, when doing grains, I wouldn't recommend the 1/2 gallon jars. As, they tend to stall towards the bottom. I'd stick w/ quart jars.

this is a side grow to my other grow which consists of 50 quart jars lol. so im not too worried about these 2 jars lol.

i found the burma spores and figured id use a couple of my half gallon jars to see what happens since i had a bunch of left over rye berries prepared and no more quart sized jars lol :smile:

i also read in the "mushroom cultivator" by paul stamets that commercial growers use gallon jars :shrug:

A lot of different growers, commercial or otherwise use gallon jars
or bigger for spawn with no problems. Proper sterilization and
spawning (G2G) at a high ratio is key to success with bigger
jars.

:idea: That's what I was thinking. It'd be essential for quicker colonization to do a G2G of an iso to a gallon or 1/2 gallon jar. Def. not MS or LC...

Good call Evil, you're always on top of your shit :hug::highfive:
