so i inoced 2 jars on feb 8. weeks went by and nothing happened, so i assumed that either the spores were bunk or my jars werent sterile. anyway, i recently moved into a new place on the 1st and havnt messed with my grow stuff b\c i planned on getting settled and starting over with bags. then lastnight i was looking for something and i just happened to look at my jars and one of them was about 70% colonized! i was completely surprised by this for 2 reasons....my jars have been sitting in a tub in a closet at room temp and light gets to the jars from under the door. has this happened to anyone? im gonna birth the jars in about 3 days and see if it grows. the strain is OI

Wait for it to be 100% colonized. Incubate it. Maybe even tip it upside down.
Either that or cutoff the uncolonized portion.
It is amazing what happens when you leave them alone =)

well my FC is kinda big compared to this one jar...thats a lot of perlite id have to use.
anyways this is my idea: ive got a smaller plastic tub about the size of a shoebox. im gonna but that inside my big FC. then put perlite inside the smaller tub and the cake in there.
