once colonized how long will a jar of grain last?
    #14338994 - 04/23/11 03:16 PM (12 years, 9 months ago)

I recently inoculated 4 jars of grain. After I finished, I realized I didn't inoculate the 2 spawn bags of grain. I plan to remedy this by doing a GTG. Will the jars be ok while the bags colonize? They might be @ 100% colonization for a week or two. My other two options are do a smaller grow that will accommodate the amount of colonized grain, or order more spore and have it over nighted. Next time I will have a check list of items that enter the glove box before I start. Any suggestions?

I routinely let jars go a couple months past 100% because I'm too lazy to spawn them. :sadyes:

You can store the colonized jars in the fridge until a couple days before you plan on using them... this should slow the growth to a crawl.. just be sure you take them out a couple days before using so they start growing at room temps again.

really that long? I was wondering this myself, as I have some grain jars at ~80-90% and cant spawn for 2 or 3 more weeks. They won't start to pin in-vitro? I read somewhere that you shouldnt let your grains consolidate if you plan on spawning? im sure it doesnt really matter but it'd be good to know.

they might
mine never did

dont get me wrong, im not a lazy spawner, ive never purposefully not spawned, but sometimes you find jars you forgot about, or friends passing around genetics kinda thing etc...ive found some as old as about 6 months. still as white as could be

shrunken...and extremely tight, but contaminate free

any time theres a pause in the myceliums cycle its going to slow things down. i wouldnt ever suggest consolidating spawn, but spawn can keep for a long time
