Inoculating Rye Grain

I recently received a quart jar of sterilized rye grain (I think)from spores101 (great service by the way) and I need to make sure I know what I'm doing before inoculating. Can I inoculate rye grain just like a PF cake? It looks like whole brown rice so I'm not even sure it's rye grain. How often if at all should I shake it up? The jar is only about 3/5 full so I assume some shaking will be involved. Thanks for taking the time to answer my questions.
Peace, DHarp

You should inject just like the PF tek, and yes they do kind of look like brown rice. I like to shake right after i inoculate, and then again after its about 1/4 colonized, and then again at 1/2. Thats just me though.

eh that free jar (god bless Spores 101)was my first attempt at nocing grains. I just tilted the jar and injected against the glass in two spots like in PF tek. 1 cc per hole, then shook that crap out of it and now it's incubating Also spores 101 said he was going to send me popcorn cuz he was out of rye, yet I received a jar of rye resembling rice. GL with your endeavours.

If you innoc against the inside glass & don't shake, you can see when the spores germinate & start to grow - BETTER. My foaf does five (5) squirts )total 2 to 2.5ml), 1 each corner, 1 down center. LIKE THIS:
 Shake ONCE @ 15% colonization. More shaking only stalls growth.
