You could spend that time doing more reading so when it's finally time to make the jars you've done everything you can to prepare and aren't jumping the gun.  I wouldn't recommend it, for fun you can make a test jar and don't sterilize it and time how long it takes to contam, it's like 1-3 days, not long at all.

Yeah man, if you don't have the patience to wait until your spores arrive to make the cakes... You might as well cancel your order... Because you are going to lose your mind waiting on them to colonize, then consolidate, then finally fruit.

You're right its partly to do with patience but i live at home and have limited time to get things done, so to prep the jars just means time is less of a constraint.

Pf jars dry out quickly once prepped...

You want them with maximum water content during the colonization cycle...if they dry up before then they could stall....not saying they would for sure but it has happened to myself and others.

I don't see how living at home could effect your time frame since you're at home....lol :p

You can sterilize jars ahead of time.

I wouldn't do it more than 3 days away though.

When we sterilize we only buy time.

Microorganisms get left behind after sterilization, even if only in tiny quantities. It's never 100%

The critical control points are your sterilization time, temperature and your inoculation technique and the conditions under which the syringe was created.

Whatever you do, always flame the needle before each jar and NEVER wipe the needle with an isopropyl alcohol pad AFTER flaming.

Flaming alone is enough.

What happens to make that bad?  Wiping after flaming?  I did this to my current grow and am now worried.

Alcohol is a sanitizer but the flame sterilised.

Thus wiping with alcohol can be a good way to reintroduce contamination
