How often do you shake WBS?

How often do you guys shake your WBS jars during colonization? What are the effects of this? does it slow growth? speed it up? give a more even growth? I shook after inoculation and now I have some strong clumps forming... should I shake..?

ONCE @ around 15% colonization. Any more will SLOW process...IMHO

alright, I just decided to shake them all haha most were at at least 10%.... I've noticed WBS is taking forever to colonize, its been a full week and not much has colonized... anyones input? I guess they are twice the size of the old 1/2 pint jars I was using.. not really taking that into account..

You might have a bacterial contam if they haven't started back up again in a weeks time.

Wait a few more days...if nothing happens...open one jar and see if you smell a bad odor that doesn't smell like mushrooms...that will tell all.

Good luck!~

No I dont think its a contam at all I still see growth some jars just more then others... my dark dark home made GT syringes.. those jars are going fast, the purhcased B+ syringes where you couldnt see any spores are taking much longer... plus my incubation temps are rather low..

I shake once immediately after transfer/inoculation and then leave it alone. As agar said shaking too much can and will slow colonization.
