Yes, cold storage for a few days will slow growth, without hurting anything.

Yea you could do that, or you could spawn to bulk as soon as each separate jar becomes fully colonized which is better for the spawn, and over all production, than storing colonized grain spawn in the fridge until the other jars' mycelium catches up.

Your post was misinterpreted. The mind's in spawn bag mode. My fault, Ambush_Snipes. Sorry.
Still stand by the original stance of it's best to use spawn as soon as SOON as it fully colonizes.

no problem, i should be spawning here in the next few days. 4 out of 6 are about 90% colonized as the other 2 are about 40-50%.
so if i was to start birthing the WBS into the mono tub mix ill be able to mix in the other 2 jars a few days later??

No. All jars MUST be fully colonized before spawning to bulk.
What you COULD do is spawn to bulk the 4 jars that become ready at the same time into 1-4 substrate(s) @ a 1:2 spawn to bulk ratio, then spawn the other two jars into their own separate fruiting chamber once they become fully colonized.
