Does anyone know how many flushes u get out of 1/4 pt jars? All the stores around me quit selling karr and started selling only ball and the last run I didin the tall jars didn't turn out that good so I bought a few of the 1/4 pt jars and was just wondering how many flushes to expect.

1/4 pint jars are small... like smallllll.
To give you a reference, if people use half pints, they mostly use them for agar.
If you're trying to do BRF why not use a larger jar like a half pint, or pint.. these are the standard BRF sizes.
Also, there is no way to answer your question.
This is what these threads turn into.

I'm growing A+ cubensis
How many grams will i get per flush on average? How many grams will i get total? Wet weight and dry weight? Thanks.

exactly 42.
Actually, that's an average out of 1000 controlled experiments. It can vary between 23 and 57...

Just read the thread, you eventually get "an answer,"

Just like how humans usually have 1 child at a time but can sometimes have 2,3 or more, but 1 is the average. That's all i was asking.
And thanks gizmo1 for some numbers and jimmyjame1 for your advice to read more about the subject. I'm new to mycology and to mushroom cultivation so in time i will gather more info.
If you were using an isolate then you might be able to give an estimate but with an MS grow its like guessing the weight of an unborn child could be 5 lb's could be 10. Its random genetics
^ for the most part.
He should have said unborn unicorn child. 
It sounded like your next question was about weight which is why I say this. The number of flushes is pretty much dependent on whether you can keep the cake clean through dunk n' roll procedures.

about three fiddy. I use 1/4 pint PP plastic jars sometimes for cakes. I get between 0 and 4 flushes before I toss them.

ime, 1/4 pints kinda suck! for being 1/2 the size of regular cakes, i could never get 1/2 the yield out of them.
if your flushes kick ass then you will get less of them because there's only a certain amount of nutrition available in a substrate (cake). my cakes are usually spent and squishy by the end of the second flush and that's because them first 2 flushes are so damn productive.

You can expect 2 - 3 flushes before contamination sets in. 4 if you're lucky.

Thanks to everyone for their quick responses! I realize that these jars are small and I am only using them because of a shortage of Kerr jars in my area and i prefer the wide mouth short jars. Right now its just what i have on hand and I plan to change it up as learn better ways to do things. Thanks again everybody especially to the ones who have tried this.

I'm in the middle of my third flush now. After this, I have another set of cakes ready for birthing. I will probably use the 1/4 pint jars for cakes still, but spawn to bulk and colonize my substrates that way....haven't decided completely, though. Yeah, third flush now, though.....

Do your own math homework. Google translates measurements right in the search box for you.
