Not much the more you add the quicker they will colonize but less is better bc when you go to use them they will be cleaner and less likely to contam or attract vermin. Try 1 tablespoon.

Well things don't always look as they are and things can be misread and mistaken for what they realy are so don't read too much into what I say since I might be mistaken myself. And remember I rarely ever give a definate answer.

My noobie brain is asking if they are really fully colonized already, or if maybe the surface was just covered? Don't panic, I'm asking for my own understanding. I am soon to be starting my first oysters and definitely want to noc some logs up along the way.
I know you used a hefty amount of spawn, but that was FAST! :seeya:
