Two jars on the left are almost fully colonized... I will put cakes in fc. The three on the right I think will stall can I use horse poo and hay as described in hpoo-tek to do a bulk grow. The old water tank, can I use this for a bulk grow? Also what is the ratio for 3 pint jars to horse poo?

Im not too experienced so take this with a grain of salt. But that FC look way too big, I think you may have a hard time regulating the RH and temp, especially since you cant really add holes to it(unless you shoot it!). Are these jars verm and brf? Why not just leave them as cakes and follow a tek. Anyhow those cakes look good, when did you start them? My friend has some cakes going that look look just as colonized, noc'd 14 days ago.

You should be alright without the light fixture. I can't see the picture well but I do see you have a few holes drilled here and there.

OP - you'd probably need 20-30 quart sized grain jars to hit up that entire barrel, it's 55 gallon right? my monos are only 66 qt (16 gallon) - My monos would take 24-36 1/2 pint BRF cakes.
Just let the cakes go, you only inoculated them 3 weeks ago, sometimes it takes 5 weeks as it's MS solution.
Also, you're not keeping those in that dark cabinet are you? Light is beneficial for mycelium growth @ all stages.

at least before you start doing a bulk tek that requires true & proper pasteurization.
