I figured I should shake the jars about now.
 These are the Transki, the Z are not so well off..
 This is an old pic, but it's almost exactly how well off the majority of Z are.
The Transki are all about the same. Regardless of strain, all the jars were shook (hopefully that spreads what little Z myc there is around).
 Shaken Transki jars.
And I've now situationed the jars one one level instead of stacked. I've gotten the space by adding another bottom towel and raising the jars (which I needed to do anyways to get more even temps). Is Transki known for being a stronger colonizer?

I just checked the temp in the TiT (w/out looking at the jars! ) and the temp for all the jars is at a stable 85.5.

The Transki colonized like you see above, and I've shaken them all. I'm setting up my space for the two FCs right now and I'll be back with pictures. I have a 14W CFL on a Timer with 2 sets of on and off pieces, any recommendations? Right now I just have it set to ON 9am, OFF 9pm. The other set isn't being used.

Here's a picture of the holes I cut, I made sure to be acurate to within 1/16th of an inch for all of the holes.
 If you can't see the numbers on the bit, the holes are 1 1/4 inches.
Here's where the FCs will go. I'm not sure if they'll get enough AE under there, so I might have to have a fan oscillate somewhere nearby but not under the bed with them. Actually, if I were to postition the fan (a 12 inch) on top of the subwoffer near the FCs facing away from the FCs at a wall a foot away, would that be good enough for FAE while not being too direct of the draft? I'll come back with a pic later if it's even a possibility.
 Here's The two FCs, one isn't done yet because they were the wrong tub size. I picked up 4 from KMart and the top two inside the bottom two, were 27qt and not 49 which I didn't notice. It's actually a good thing because as you can see, the top wholes might be a little too low when inverted.

I'm going to pick up 2 more 49qt tubs which can now be the top tubs if I should indeed make the holes higher up.

You shouldnt be checkng the jars so much from my understanding, the constant exposure to the light will slow down the mycelium growth. You should check them once a day at the most, but i like to check every 2-3 days.

It's my first go at growing and I just want to make sure to get the temps right, the TiT got hotter as the myc started to grow. I won't be checking nearly as often on my next grow as I'll have the temps under control more or less.

It weird, even with all the towels under the jars and the TiT at 85.5, the tops of the jars are doing much better than the bottoms, so I turned the heater down to 81. I'll see how that affects the inside.

I lowered the heater down to 80 from 81 becasue the Z seems to be doing much better since I lowered it yesturday. The Z now has spots of myc all over, hopefully with the lower temps they will spread. The Transki still has the myc on top and no myc on bottom. While I had the top tub out. I swirled the H2O with my hand and I can feel the different temps, so for the next time I use the TiT, I'm gunna throw in a pump as Onetime swears by. I hope the high temps thus far hasn't done anything irresversible, although I doubt it as the Z is doing much better after showing hardly anything.
It's weird, even after having the heater at 81, the inside temps were still at 85. Those jars produce a ton of heat!

If you want to try to save electricity I would run on a shorter cycle. I have done fine with 4 hours a day. But lately I just put monotubs stacked in a spare bedroom with some indirect light and they do fine.

The bottom of the jars still seem to be having a hard time as the temps have still not gone down from 85 (except for a few that are not as close to the heater as the others). Since I'm not getting a pump just yet, to get around the bottoms being too hot, I've taken disposable paper bowls and used them upside down to cover the bottom. Now the jars sit ontop of upturned bowls, hopefully that will eliminate the problem by giving them a layer of air underneath them. They are still insualted to keep the overall temp the same.

Here are more up to date pictures of the two strains. The transkis are almost there by the looks of it, except for a few that have nothing on the bottoms, but the Zs are having a hard time.

Nice GL. Hope to see some more pics soon!
