OVER INOCULATION, Lets see if it works

If you remember, I made a post 3 days ago called "over inoculation?". In that post, I told how I used 5cc's in a half pint jar, for a total of 6 jars and 3 syringes of 3 diff strains.Golden Teacher, Treasure Coast, And Cub b+.
Here is the update. The Golden Teacher jars are about 3% colonized, the Treasure Coast is about 1% colonized, and no signs so far with the Cub b+'s. The jars have so far been incubated at room temperature (about 76~F). I am using a heating pad to bring the temps to about 85~F. They have breathable filters, and I think the substrate is a mix of birdseed, millet, vermiculite, and oyster shell. I will update daily. Pics are soon to come hopefully. For now, Ill have to use my crappy webcam.The first 2 pics are of the Golden Teachers.

Oh.BTW, the heating pad im using has a 2HR auto shut-off. SUX ASS!!!!! I have to go push the button every 2 hours lol. But, it's keeping a stable 85`F.

if you keep updating, then theres just one more grow log for a newbie to learn from. So id say yes. Also, have you tried to figure out a way to bypass the 2hr auto shut-off?

Bush or boobies? I vote for both. I got an aquarium heater off of eBay for very cheap, which would let you set up the two-tank incubator. http://www.shroomery.org/index/par/7961 Then you can just set it and forget it.

I'm glad to see I didn't discourage you. People actually thought I was being mean to you in the other thread. That wasn't my intent.
It's not a bad idea to leave things be and see how they work out. Hopefully you will NOT get contams. But you never know, with the amounts of water you injected in your jars. How wet did the jars look to begin with? Because if they were a little on the drier side, they will have a better chance of pulling through. You can always dunk after they colonize if they are too dry.
Good luck!

I would continue updating the pics. Just don't overdo it and post pics every 2 hours. Personally from those pics, I really can't see much growth but I think 3 more days worth and it will start showing up in the pics as well
The only thing that can suck with over-inoculation is that you're adding a LOT of moisture into the jar (and such a small jar) with 5cc's of water. Just warning that it may begin colonizing but bacteria may overgrow and pause the growing. I hate being halfway through colonization and then it stops. I give it a few weeks, open the jar and BAM...the sour shitty smell hits me in the face. Hurts every time

Ok. Results of day #4. Golden Teacher jars are showing nice growth.Seeing nice strandy "ball" myc in Treasure Coast about the size of a pencil lead. No noticeable difference in the Cub B+ jars.

Like I said before tho, after I found out I fucked up, I realised that this would be a good learning experience for me and maybe even some others.

Day 5 after inoculation. The pic of GT is bottom of jar.As of now, it is the most colonised. The Cub+ surprised me today. Starting to see evidence of growth on them finally.
