did you flame sterilize the needles? maybe you didnt let it cool enough on some of the bags and you killed the spores. also the water content is different in each bag, maybe some will take longer to colonize than others. especially with multispore syringes.. give it some time, i wouldn't shake it.. that would just damage and redistribute the myc slowing colonization down

Yes the amount of moisture infuences colonization greatly.
a multispore syringe is just a normal syringe that you would order from a vendor.. unlike a lc syringe
and shaking them can help in the future, but right now if you dont have any signs of growth i would not shake. redistribution does speed colonization up, but if you shake too much then its not doing it any good

I used a mycobag once and it was going sooooo slow, barely showing anything at all. I just got fed up with it and threw it in a box in my closet. Looked at it about a week later and it was fully colonized.

thats what you have to do with mycobags.. i ordered one and knocked it up with z strain multispore syringe, about a week ago, or so and i havent even checked it.. its just kind of one of those set it and forget it.. and then in a couple months, you got a nice chunk of colonized substrate

Great, thanks guys!
I'll post back in a week or two. I wonder how the heck I managed to get one contaminated?
