Those are half gallon jars, cakes aren't recommended for anything over 1 pint, they take too long to colonize and dry out and have issues.....

Alright be smart about it. Get a couple industrial trash bags and use them like microbags. fill them with hpoo and inoculate and bam! spice it up a notch......anyway, if for some crazy reason you do find 2000 jars,(id just inoculate the trash bags, or giant plastic tubs.) then use the cooler tek. get alot of camping coolers, from diff. stores so no one asks questions, you could fit atleast 20-30 jars if im not mistaken in one of them. thats if you stack them on top of each other, and pour in some hot water. let it sit over night and the you have sterile jars. But then what about the spores? unless you have alot of prints and syringes. its not like you can purchase 1000 syringes(I couldnt do the math..). anyhoo, happy shroomin.

I just did an average here, jars cost me about $.60 each for 2000 jars that is $1,200.00. thats insane you shouldnt have to spend that much to grow 15lbs. Just get grain and poo down, or at least spawn the cakes to poo.

No kiding, If it is for distrabution, just grow with moderation. That way theres no suspiction, and it wont cost an arm and a leg. 20-30 jars cased would yeild enough to get going, and while your"giving" away what youve grown, you could be growing some more.. that way its a constant flow. if its like here you get some nice shit all at once, and then for 5, 6 months nothing....

Buying all of those mason jars will raise some red flags.
Mason jars, apparrently, are one of the 'signs' to look out for in suspicion of a meth lab.

You know the biggest problem I have with the shroomery is people asking stupid questions like where to get 2000 jars. If you cant figure out what sort of places may contain jars, you have no right expecting others to tell you and bitching if you get people who cant answer your question. The store is the only place you are going to find bulk jars unless you know of someplace special around you. In which case no one else can tell you about it. Ask a question that deserves a direct answer and you get one (usually).

I DEFY you to find 166 cases of jars in my town, and it's no small town.
This is a rediculous thread.

Insanity, search for "Magash's Rye tek", follow it to the letter, you can't fail as long as you have a PC. He recommends Tyvek for the jars, but what my buddy does is punch two holes, one smaller than the other. He then puts a dab of silicone RTV sealant (comes in different sized tubes, smells like vinegar) on both ends of the smaller hole. When this is dry in a day it becomes a self healing injection site. Find polyester fiber fill, grab a chunk, compress it a little and pull it through the larger hole. Fool proof. Casings are easy, in the time it takes for the jars to be ready, you can learn how to do em.
I've never bothered to though, cause my buddy does it, then shares the fruits of his labor .

 Yeah, RIGHT!
You either intend to sell jars or mushrooms. Anyway, to get Ball jars at wholesale cost, you need to contact the manufacturer directly. Ball is owned by Jardin Home Brands, at least they were when I last checked. I used to have the email address, but I don't now. You should be able to find it if you poke around. They had a minimum order of either $1000 or 1000 jars, I can't remember which.
Just remember, this is ALOT of jars and if you do order them, you will be paying freight shipping costs and you'll need a loading dock and some space in the garage.
Good luck with your business....err, I mean personal grow .

Everyone is trying to tell this guy how to do grains/bulk. We all know it's not that damn hard, so I believe he has ulterior motives that I mentioned above.
Nobody is going to come out and say "I want to start a PF jar business that competes with the vendors here, help me out!"
Know what I mean?

THIS post is also kind of fishy. Didn't he say he already tried and failed with mycobags? Why would you want to make your own then?

Myself I could care less if you are starting a business or not. Contact the jar company you want and ask about bulk prices most of them have em.
