Seeking guidance Re: Dried grain spawn
    #19215391 - 12/02/13 12:10 AM (10 years, 1 month ago)

Tried to UTFSE & didn't find the exact answer I was looking for. Apologies in advance if this has been covered.

A week or two back I g2g'd to 12 quarts of wheat berries which now appear to be colonized thoroughly, except for the VERY top (very thin) layer of grain which appears to have dried out. I'm uncertain if these grains were colonized & THEN dried out, or if they dried out and therefore were not colonized. The presence of sterilized/uncolonized grains making it into my sub sketches me out.

I imagine I can, however, knock most of these dry grains off before breaking up & spawning the colonized grain. My question is - if a few uncolonized grains made into my sub would it be a major issue? If they're too dry for mycelium to colonize are they likely to cause issues?

Your opinions are much appreciated

The top layer having a few bare spots is very normal on grain jars.

It will be fine.

Dunk the grains before spawning :wink:

Gave the jars a sniff & a quick inspection before spawning and all seems well thus far.

It's been a while so I think I'm just being over-cautious about the details :lol:

Thanks Frank

What about in the event of dry/loose grain on the bottom of an almost fully colonized grain spawn bag? It doesn’t appear that those will colonize-very loose and separate from the rest, which seems to be healthy mycelium... (80% colonized 3 lb. bag)
