Do I shake my 32oz grain jars?
    #28897325 - 08/02/24 04:05 AM (5 months, 12 days ago)

Should I shake my 32oz jars of colonizing rye when it is colonized 50%? I use to use rye bags and I did shake them at 50%.

Since this is my first time using Jars, how do I know when my Jars are fully colonized and ready for spawn to bulk?

Thank you for your advice,

WC

It's common to shake jars at 30% colonization so shake away

Edit: you'll know it's fully colonized when the myc covers all the grains.  Post pics if you're not sure

So like I said I am changing from bags to jars, first time for jars!! Probably a silly question, but I am quite sure  when I  have fully colonized jars, and ready to spawn to bulk, it is difficult to get  the colonized grain out of the jars, since  it will 1 complete mass in the  jars!!

How do you remove the colonized grain from the jar and in a fashion that is following sterile protocol.

Thanks for the advice,

You are very appreciated!!!!

I see, you must be used to kneading the bag to break up the grain. Not to worry, once fully colonized you'll be able to shake the jar at full colonization to break it up again. 

When the spawn is clean it breaks up effortlessly and the grains roll around freely.

When spawn is bacterial it can be difficult to break it up with a shake because it clumps/solidifies.  To play it safe, most people spawn these types of jars to their own shoebox or to an outdoor patch.
