Ive got a 6gal carboy i plan on using to do a g2g transfer i plan on using 2 or maybe 3 qts of colonized WBS. Ill be using bird seed because in my experience it has fastest grow.four 10lb bags of nutting better brand bird seed. (just the cheapest stuff). Carboy is what i make wine in has a coke caNcaN size hole in top with rubber stopper. Stopper has one hole pinkey size im going to use as FAE. Its 25in tall round belly 20in dia. How long till it colonized completely you think.
How big of one has every one did and times to colonize?
I plan to mix with 20lbs horse/ 20 lbs wheat straw. And make a 100lb cake. I know only 80lbs but time i add water to WBS it should be close.

I wouldn't put all my eggs in one basket. Maybe make 3-4 tubs. Because if you get one bad jar everything is contamated because you put everything in one tub.
Once you get to the point where 1 qt mason jars are not big enough and you wanna go bigger. You should really look into spawn bags.

What's your rubber stopper made of? It may melt in the PC.
Use whatever your comfortable with. What happened to your spawn bags? Why'd you only get 1/5?

I bought five 5lb bags of rye from a sponsor on this site. 1 im fruiting now the others sat there for two weeks. Melted ice cream, bacteria. Never had that problem with doing jars myself. They had SHIP wiped with oust spray on cotten ball . New sterile needle on every injection. I use a homemade flow hood with 3 micron filter
