spawn bags

Hey all, just hoping for some input from growers who used spawn bags as I am starting a new grow and using bags for my spawn. I'm just wondering what was the best procedure for colonisng the bags after inoculation..first should i knead the bags after shooting ms or leave be for mono/dyk relations? Ive read both. Secondly and lastly, should the bags be stored in any specific way for colonization? Should they be hanging or placed specifiaslly for fae? Any input from experience is greatly appreciated.

Don't knead the bags until 33% colonization. You don't want to mix it right after inoculation because the spores will be further apart and monokaryotic (unmated) mycelium colonizes slower than dikaryotic (mated) mycelium. Store the bag at ambient room temperature (between 70f and 80f) on a counter or bookcase. Ambient light is beneficial to colonizing mycelium.

It's a lot easier to figure that out in quarts than pounds 
You should take a look at my "Breaking in the Greenhouse" thread linked in my signature. Starting on page 2 HippieChick gave some sound advice regarding greenhouses. My log isn't too shabby either

Try flowing RR's tek if you have a flow hood. If not I've gotten away with pre sealing the .5 bags with my food saver lol. I also find that spawn bags work much better with LC or g2g than spores.
Spores need to be next to each other to mate.
My process is usually SMALL (4oz) grain jar half filled, knocked with spores. Make GLC (I can usually get 150cc of myc-water per small jar) with the small jar. Proceed to spray GLC all over every sterile grain you can get your hands on
