the best way to rehydrate your jars is to dump them out and start again. Otherwise just let nature run its course, you should be ok.

You didn't mention how you prepared them, but a leading cause of dry jars is popping the weight off the pc to let steam escape after the sterilization process. Coda is right. Dump them out and start over. No real way to fix them and have the moisture spread evenly through the substrate.

Sometimes if you are patient too dry of jars with colonize if you have the space and patience for them.

I was teaching someone else mycology and here is a jar inoculated Jan 10th. I think these jars were being incubated too high and dried substrate out. But it colonizing slowly and mycelium is amazing stuff.



Sometimes people claim longer-run / older mycelium produces less desirable fruits in yields and potency. The argument makes sense but I do not know if it's true.
