When to spawn to bulk?

Hello, guys and girls! Super excited about my first Cubensis B+ spawn, and as far as I can tell the mycelium looks healthy. Can someone confirm?
   
I put all my eggs in this one jar, because under sterilizing in pot (Tyndelization TEK) 3 of 4 jars didn't handle the heat and broke. FML. It's a 0.5L jar so I guess it's enough for me to spawn to bulk, and give me time to get new and better jars for next spawn.
It's been about 20-25 days since I inoculated the jar. The syringe I got from a polish provider obviously had very few spores in them (not very visible, only but a few). I almost tossed the jar, but I couldn't get the lid off, so I thought I do it next day. That next day I could see traces of mycelium.
How often do I shake the jars to speed up colonization? Does the jar need to be completely "surrounded" in mycelium until it's ready to spawn to bulk? If not, when and how do I know when it's time?
Thanks for any input! Happy shroomery to everyone!

Have these been shaken? If so, how long ago?
1-2 time shake is usually plenty.
Yes wait till all the grains are completely covered by myc before spawning.
Instead of doing syringe to grains look into agar.

I have only shook them very so gently one time. The bottom part of grain/mycelium did not release from the jar, as I didn't really wanna mess it up if I did it too hard or something. This was 3 days ago.

I hit mine with a phone book, as hard as I can, repeatedly. They recover stronger than ever. Point is, you want those bottom grains unstuck from the glass.
