myc growth! will it continue?

So i had a pleasant surprise today. 3 of my 14 pint jars that i inoculated well over a month ago, are actually colonizing! i had let them dry significantly before inoculation, and they were kept at very cold temps. this kept them from showing any growth, and i had pretty much given up on them. i threw them in a tub, in a closet, tucked away, and pretty much forgot about them. i decided to clean them out today, but to my surprise, 3 of the jars actually have growth!!



now when i move the jars, the WBS moves around very freely, meaning they are obviously very dry. since i havent been keeping up with them, im not sure when the growth started, or what rate they are growing at.. I just put them in my TiT incubator with all my quart jars with the hopes that they will continue to colonize 
what do you guys think? will these jars do alright? should i shake them soon? Does it look like good mycelium?
im actually quite excited to see that these are colonizing lol. i was ready to throw that set of jars out :p

Looks okay to me. Does not look dry. Give them a shake about 20%. After shaking the colonisation should be done in a few days

Give them a good shake. and you should be fine. Could take a while to fully colonise if they are dry

yes i shook before inoculation. and i just shook 2 of the jars. i didnt realize how much they were actually colonized. it was full of myc pretty much all the way through the middle!
now i just hope they arent too dry to fight back and continue growing!
