jar question
    #5551844 - 04/24/06 05:55 PM (17 years, 9 months ago)

im new and i just started growing. im incubating grain jars right now and i have 4 grain jars incubating and one of them is 85% complete while the others are 5%-20%. what can i do to make them grow at the same rate. and what would happen if the first jar completes colonizing and i leave that jar until the others are done?

I'm told that jars never colonize at the same rate.

You can help the process along by thwaping the jars with the heel of your hand or maybe by butting the jars against a rubber tire to distribute the myc.

Other than giving it proper temp, gas exchange, etc, you're going to have to be patient.

PS: This is just from what I've read. I could be wrong.

you can slow the first jar by leaving it at room temp, or wait until it reaches 100% and refrigerate it to "pause" it for a while while the others catch up. its normal for them to go at different rates although thats a big difference - make sure in the future to be as consistent as possible with your moisture content.

It's ok to let it stay in the incubator a few days past full col. If it's gonna be a week then just put it in a plastic bag and throw it in the fridge.
