I've read so many different things, watched so many different videos lol. So once I have these bags fully colonized, I just break em up, throw em in a tub with some coir or whatever substrate, and then throw a casing layer over? Seems easy enough Remember guys, I am new to the experience, not the reading. I've read TONS on how to do all this, I just need some of your experiences so I can decide which method I like best Also what do you guys suggest I do with these Pint jar cakes? fruit directly from the cake or break it up into something?? I would prefer quantity over size, Like I'd rather a bunch of small to medium sized fruits over a couple monster sized ones, thanks!

Alright cool, sounds good. What type of spawn should I use for my cakes?? And is there any easy ratio of how much to use/ how many cakes?

you mean bulk your cake is your spawn anyratio you want is fine i wouldn't go past 1:4 just because a cake is only 1/3 grain

yep exactly, coir is an awesome sub but o is h-poo but whatever you choose just pasturize properly and you will be fine, i've done everything under the sun with crumbled cakes from gh trays to mono's

Alright guys, Everything looking good so far with my jars. My spawn bags came in REALLY fast, good work MWGK They look pretty nice, neatly made up with filter patch and Self healing injector port. Now I'm waiting on Ralph to send me my syringes :P I'll let you guys know when they come in, And I'll update with some pictures of the jars. Till then, keep it real

Alright guys, So my ralphsters order is shipped, should arrive mon, maybe tues. When it comes, I'll let you all know. Anyway, here are my rye bags I bought, each is 3 lbs. Also included are 3 pics of that Tas jar that's doing pretty well, as it turns out all the other Tas jars are doing absolutely nothing and look the same as when I noc'd em. I'm assuming they got some contaminate as well because they almost have this yellow slimy stuff in them, a picture of that is also included. You can see the yellowish stuff towards the bottom of the jar. I'm not sure if I said already, but the syringes I have coming are cambodian, and the SOTM which is dancing tigers from china. I plan on using these spores directly instead of an LC for these Rye bags, 5cc's per bag. That may be leaning towards a lot, however MWGK said to use 3-5cc a bag and I'll have 20cc and 4 bags so it all works out. Hopefully they work out good, wish me luck!

And yeah, There are only a few with the shit in it, I have maybe 3 good jars total. I'll hopefully do better with these bags, becuase they have the injector port, and filter pitch, It might do better. I hope so

So i have a question that know one seems to be able to answer. I have a total of 7 1/2 pint tall jars (i understand the tall jars suck). 5 of the jars were inoculated 2 weeks ago and only show growth on one side of the jar (the growth doesn't look bad)  the other two jars were inoculated a week ago and show signs of growth on both sides and it looks alot more aggressive it looks like this on both sides of the jar. my question is why did this happen the jars i did last week have alomst more growth then the 2 week old jars?

ya,zdollaz. it looks like those jars are bacteria contammed. could be they weren't cooked long enough. or the bacteria, wicked in through your damp, verm layer. leaving the foil on after cooking, allows condensation to pool on top .and damp verm barrier. creating a vector for bacteria to enter. you should do fine on your grain bags. try to squirt your spore solution against the side of the bag. between the plastic and grain. not into the grain. gl
