Very simple quick yes or no question take a look!

Long story short I'm using quart wide mouth jars & WBS. I put a little too much seed in the jars not enough room for the additional colonized grain hence making my G2G a pain to shake. I have not yet done the G2G due to this.
-Can I in my glove box empty out some grain immediately prior to making the transfer insuring the correct amount of room for the colonized grain to shake properly?
Thank you!

How full are the jars? I do g2g transfers with quart jars that are almost completely full. I just have to shake the shit out of them to make sure the grain is distributed evenly. However, if the jars are filled all the way up to the band, you may want to dump some out. Keep in mind that what you are dumping out is sterilized grain. If you have an extra quart jar, dump the excess grain from the others into that jar and then do a g2g transfer with it. It'll make an extra quart of spawn instead of just being tossed out.

Too funny. If you are willing, get an incense and light it in your gb. Pretend to do work and look at the smoke swirl around. If it's fairly still, especially near the areas you work in, you should be fine. I did it with my gb, and found my gloves were too big, and moved air around a ton. In a still air box, by making the arm holes much bigger, and having tiny arms, the air didn't get moved around.. like at all.

I bet you've had contams. Maybe you didn't notice or know. But anyone who's done this for awhile, will never say they've had no contams in something. You develop your techniques through contams IMO.

its a shame how many people start this hobby with outdated info. This site seriously needs to be cleansed of all the old info that's become misleading/worthless.
I got started using last decades techniques too, and am only now catching up thanks to helpful members here 
I like the idea of using smoke to see how still the air in a SAB really is madseason..many thanks for that. I'd been curious about how certain features of my SAB affected airflow and now I can solve that problem with ease

If it were me, I'd sterilize an empty jar, "G2G" the extra into that jar and proceed as normal.
If you made your GB from a plastic tub, your gloves are hurting your efforts. If you made it from wood, metal or something else and it's 100% airtight, go with it. I doubt your GB is 100% airtight though.
Get rid of the UVC either way. It's only gonna give you cancer. Good technique is all you need.
