2 questions:
1. Should fans in the room be off during the ENTIRE grow? I know it messes up circulation for SGFCs, but can it also mess up something for the colonization period?
2. Would the flash of an iPhone camera hurt mycelium? I have a very small spot on one of my cakes that I think is the beginning of growth, and I'd like to take a picture of it to put on here so I can get some input about it from people as to whether or not it's good.

No, your fine with fans in the room for colonization.

Why wouldn't it be? Please don't tell me you have read to keep them in complete darkness, because that is the last thing a noob should hear.....yes, it's fine to expose the mycelium to light.

UPDATE - 08/17/15
Signs of growth are apparent in 3/5 jars after 1 and a half to 2 weeks. Hopefully the other two will start soon!

UPDATE: as of today, there are still 2/5 jars that show no signs of myc. If it came that three weeks had passed and there was still no growth at all, how bad would it be to just take the syringe back out at put another half cc of spore solution in each jar? Flame sterilized needle, of course. Just curious is all, other than those two jars, the others are coming along great!

Another question, am I supposed to leave micro pore tape on the jars during colonization? I took mine off the other day because I looked at RR's video and his didn't have any. But it doesn't need to be there to filter because that's what the dry layer of verm is for right?

UPDATE: 4/5 jars are on their way, but one ha yet to colonize. No contams. I'm thinking I might just crumble these and case it because they are takin an incredibly long time to colonize due to the wrong size of the jar. How should I go about casing these? I'm a noob so this is new territory for me, any teks or links for casing pf jars would be awesome!

Leave the last one, just wait it out until they either pin, colonize or stall for a while. Then take them out,. brush off what's left, dunk for 24 hours and cheese grate (Small side). Then mix evenly into a tray.

I suggest using Coir/Verm. Better then just casing.

You can get Coir at any local petco in the reptile section or a hydroponics store.

Could I wait until two are at 100%, do two of lazymofo's bag teks, and then cut that 50/50 tek in half?

Eat is a great grower.

If I was you I'd probably try something that wasn't 12 years old to get the hang of growing mushrooms and then give it a shot :shrug:.

You can do what he did though, not sure if you'll get the same results.

So you suggest I should just wait until they're all colonized and then just mix them all together with the uncolonized one in a tray? And then put the tray in a SGFC?

Yup :thumbup:

But like I said, do what you want. You could pull off that bag trick perfectly and never regret it... Or you could give them a poor environment/not fully understand everything and regret it a lot.

Alright! So if I decide to not do the bag trick, should I just take that 50/50 tek and reduce it to 1/4 and then mix that into the tray with the grated cakes?

Yup, if you have a problem with ratios like I do then I'd hydrate the whole brick and then store it in ziplocs in my fridge.

One more question, where do I put the tray while it colonizes completely? Just in the SGFC?

Would this plan work after 3 out of the 5 jars were at 100%? Because the 4th one is colonized, but by the time it reached 100% the other 3 would have already started pinning in the jars; it's way behind.
