Growing from a box

Hi all,
I just managed my first grow box and sampled the shrooms last night, I had around 17g wet and it was amazing.
I used these forums to find pictures for the best time to pick them (B+) and it worked perfectly.
I have one question though, I have seen pictures of people growing the shrooms straight out of a box, this looks like a much more efficient way to do it but I am struggling to understand how to set up a box to then inject my spores in like I did with my grow box.
Is it possible to use spores and a needle on a box you make yourself or do I need to keep doing the cake method if I have spores in a vial?
Thanks in advance.

Ok one more thing..
I have liquid spores in a small vial but the methods mentioned in the threads I have read all had 'mushroom spawn' it was not the liquid I have, where or how do I get this mushroom spawn?

Brilliant help folks, thanks.
The cake didn't cut it, there wasn't enough shrooms tbh, I can't wait to try spawning them on a flat surface, some of the pics here almost gave me a boner lol
The last thing I need is rubbing alcohol, a trip down to the chemist should solve that problem, luckily my mum loves to make jam and had some decent un-used two lid ball jars, so I'm almost ready to roll!!
Once I try it I'll write up a report, it might be a few weeks though.
Thanks again.

Should really be using quart jars for grain. Unless you want to make a ton of them anyway.

It is half a quart but I only plan on growing one box at a time for now, when I order some new jars I'll get the quartz size ones, thanks for the heads up.

You'll still need a couple pints depending on how big the tub you're using will be.
