AFOAF is gonna make a few casings probably about 3 maybe more. He's gonna do 50/50+ . this is his first time. he'll see how it goes before deciding to do more. he doesn't wanna lose too many cakes. if everything goes well he'll make a lot of casings.

put some sort of rack between your jars so the jars arent cutting off all circulation....

are u using the actual lids with a hole cut in? or are you just using fiter disks and lid bands?
if you are using just lid bands and filter disks...you may want to keep an eye out for drying of the substrate...
but from the looks of it, you are doing fine...and just a lil bit paranoid of failure....

My friends plan was to use the disks and lid bands but he wasn't able to get some containers and a heater so he decided it would be better to leave the actual lids on so they wouldn't dry out. He's gonna try to get some containers and a fish tank heater soon but it looks like it will be to late for this batch.

let me get this straight, you have the entire lid + lid bad + filter disk, on?
are there holes punched into the lid?

the reason you turn them upside down is to drain off the co2, and wouldn't there have to be holes to inoculate? i always leave mine upside down

Yeah. That's how you do it. Flip em, and pat the lid so that a little space is left, which will drain the CO2 (which is heavier than air). Basic science..

You know what I say, good job. Looks like things are comming along nicely. One suggestion bud, do more casings than that, mabey even try the flat cake method, cakes really don't compare to casings output wise, IMHO. I have been wanting to see more of the flat cake method around, but seems its not catching on. Try it, you have more than enough jars to spare, and if you do let me know how it turns out. Otherwise I think that everything you are doing is fine.
Good luck.
Oh yeah find a heat blanket pad thingy and stick it in that place the jars are, that'll keep 'em toasty.
Later

My friend left his jars alone for a couple of days and when he checked on them he noticed his first shroom. He's gonna birth the cake now. The picture sucks cause my camera looks like ass when the flash isn't on, but when the flash is on the jar gives a huge glare and you can't make anything out. I am taking pictures for my friend because he doesn't have a digi cam.

Updated pics of my friends jars.
all his jars
a close up
least colonized
most jars look like the next 2
Some of his cakes are fully colonized but he is waiting an extra day or two for the mycellium network to strengthen.
if you want to see a picture of his terrarium setup click here: http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=Forum2&Number=477911&page=&view=&sb=&o=&fpart=all&vc=1 once again, thank you forty
