Adding Spawn to a 4 day old mono tub -- Bad idea?

So I just found an extra quart jar of spawn that I had somehow looked over when I was preparing my mono tubs.
This is my first grow, and the 2 tubs were set up 4 or 5 days ago, WBS>Coir/Verm (Damiens Elementary Tek). One tub has 5.5 quarts of WBS, and the other has right around 5 quarts mixed in. It would be wise to mention that I did make the mistake(?) of leaving a bit too much coir in the bucket (damien recommends putting a small amount to the side to cover the mixed spawn/coir), so there is a ~3/4" layer of straight coir on top the mixed coir and spawn.
Would it be wise to divide the quart of spawn evenly between the 2 colonizing tubs, and lightly mix it in the top coir layer? I guess im asking if it would help cut down colonization time and not be a risk of contamination. There is only a few very small areas around the edges where mycelia has popped up through the coir layer
Any input on the matter is greatly appreciated. Cheers!

Ah, sorry--->The only reason I didn't mention that is because I already have a few dozen G2G transfer jars colonizing at the moment and all my silicone/tyvek lids are being employed with those jars, so that is ruled out.

I wouldn't do it. Your substrate is vulnerable right now. Just stick those spawn jars in the fridge for the next batch.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking, but like I said, this is my first go around so just thought it'd be best to ask around first. Thanks for taking a look at the thread anyways
