I'm gonna have to disagree. my grain looks uncolonized.. especially for pins.
it's close but that droplet isn't a pin developing, i know what knots will look like.

quick question about my grain jars with the LC air filter...
I took 2 of the 3 jars that I thought werent performing as well as the other one & threw them in my SAB in a sterile bathroom. I popped the blue injection ports out & replaced with a nice polyfil filter.. if everything went okay could this fix my jars that have been deprived of GE?

thank you k00laid, for easing my worries.
-- another question. was this bag -


- that was noticably more colonized.. id say about 85% colonized. I've been worried about it for awhile because it's been taking an extremely long time since germination.
what i did with this bag once it stopped moving(or slowed down too much) is pinch the edge that was the only uncolonized part and kept those berries out of the mix. after securing the uncolonized part, i gently dumped the colonized spawn into the bag, using approximately 7/8 of a pound of rye berries to about a pound of poo.
could this work or am i pushing it..? I felt the bag had stalled because after a bit more growth from that picture it seemed to stall. it smelled good.. 
thanks.

I suppose if you want to make sure it gets extra air you can prepare your SAB really good and then open the jars and give them a wave or 2 with the lid and close them back up.
This is a really bad idea. Remember a SAB relies on still air and doing this could kick up any contams that are not stuck to the floor or walls. Plus anyway you simply want gas exchange, simply opening the jar could possibly be enough to get the required jar rather than tryign to fan it out which is more of FAE than gas exchange.
As for spawning grain thats not fully colinised, i wouldnt recomend it but then ive never tried it so i dont have any experience in that. I know with my jars that i have had a couple grains that never colinised though due to being pressed up against the glass and moisture had collected so guess it was hard to colinise.
I spawned anyway and there ripping through my bulk just fine. As long as there isnt any uncolinised grain in your bulk it should be fine.
As for why those parts didnt colinise, maybe stuck up against the side of the bag and its hard to colinise? or moisture has collected. In bags that are getting lack of gas excchange you could possible carefullly inflate the bag by pulling the sides out but i relaly dont know if this is recomended.
another thing you could do is just massive it to get the grains away from the side of the bag, but then again maybe its contaminated? but it does look healthy.
As for the previous posts in here, those 2 jars that you posted about dont look healthy but keep an eye on them
And the yellow spot, possibly just metobolites, its only a worry if a grain jar/bag has lots of metabolites, a little is fine.

i figured i shouldnt open the jars up. but i did replace the SHIPs with polyfil in as sterile as possible conditions i could achieve.
why dont they look healthy?
& this grain hadnt moved at all for 4days so i tried to spawn it without mixing in the uncolonized part. again it smelt okay but who knows. ill post when something happens.

im talking about the 2 jars you posted later and you said wtf. I dunno it just looks funny.
But the jars in your original post looked fine except the one that had a patch that hadnt colinised, ill have to go back and try expanding the pictures again, wasnt working earlier, i need to post in the website feedback as it appears the pictures are triggering tmobiles content lock despite viewing the site over ssl.
Look out for mycelium forming a solid edge like its ran up against a wall, it can be a sign of bacteria has already colinised that area, or maybe the grain is just really pushed up against the glass?? or excess moisture in that area.
Some of my WBS jars have been a bit mushy so ive ended up giving them another shake as the bottom got a litle compressed, they recoved within 24 hours.
As long as the polyfill was sterilised you should be fine. Personaly i would have just released the gases in the jar by unscrewing the lid and putting it back on (again not sure if it really helps with gas exchange i do remember a post about someone "burping" there jars) and then change the filters for the next round. If "burping" jars to see if it makes a difference. Obviously do it in a glovebox and wipe your jars down with IPA.

noticed knots and primordia an hour ago so i assumed the myc wants to fruit. threw it in fruiting conditions at 10:30pm.

..high spawn rate ftw. 
less than 3 days to full colonize

4:30am 5/13, these 2 pics are of the top of my substrate inside the bag. it's very humid and difficult to get pictures so, please judge with the best of your abilities.
hows it look?
