This is all my equipement:
40 cases (12 jars in a case) of 1/2 pint jars
2 huge bags of verm
lots of rye grain
enough brf from 10-15
Im making the Transition from verm-brf to rye because i cant afford to buy that many syringes ( i have 20 left of B+) so of course ill be doing spore prints, but sometime the timing is off so ill need to do g2g,ive been doing alot of reading but i still dont have it clear on how im supposed to do it,if anyone can explain clearly or give me a link to a detailed tek, that would be fuckin awesome
next batch i want to start to case, wheres a good to place to look for manure and straw and all that stuff?
thanks guys!

to g2g, all you need is a spoon and a glovebox. you clean the glovebax and 1 colonized jar and 12 freshly pc'd jars. alos, clean a spoon and put it in the box. once the box is sterile, just spoon 1 heaping table spoon of colonized rye into each other jar. 1 jar should transfer out to 10-12 jars. after the g2g is completed, shake the jars and let them incubate. the colonization should take 7-10 days.

You may want to get your hands on some bigger jars, quart jars are good to work with.
You can work with rye and half pint jars, but it will be a pain in the ass to sterilize and make some transfers with so many jars. Also, producing 1 quart of spawn requires 4 half-pint jars, which means 4 grain to grain transfer instead of 1. These extra manipulations increase the risks of contamination.
But hey, how come you have 480 half pint jars? Mind if I steal some from ya?! 
Here's a good tek for rye :

do you know how to do the liquid myc thingy, because then you could shoot 400+ jars with one syringe.
also keep reading, grains and casing will be where you end up sooner or later so take some of those 1/2 pints back and get some quarts.

yeah i read about filling some sterile water and crumbling some myc. in a jar and shaking it around and making a syringe out of that but i dont understand how that works wouldnt u need an actually piece of myc.?
again, if some one could explain the details that would be tight.
thanks again guys.

It seems kind of odd that you would spend $400 on jars but you are now running out of money for syringes.
That sucks, eh?

grain is probably not worth it in 1/2 pints. I would stick with BRF. If you want to move up to grain, get some larger jars. After one grow spores a free. You could also look into liquid innco. like jumpship said. What do you want to do end result?

Get thee to the marketplace forum. You could trade those jars for all kinds of stuff.

oh yeah, sorry didn't mean to lead you in the wrong direction. Trade,trade,trade! It may be tricky with so few posts though.

it's just a ridiculous amount more work. Grain allows for bulk where mass spawn is easily prepared in quart jars because more spawn less work. You could go to the trouble of using 1/2 pints but considering space needed to shake WBS there's not much left for grain. Look farms for straw manure, or garden supplies, casing materials at petsmart. do a search for g2g nad liquid myc. Check the faqs.
