First time Grow Log

OK so here is my first, well actually second attempt at growing these baby's. (first attempt i failed because i was rushing and didn't follow allot of instructions.)
OK so I'm going to try a wbs grow with 2 different syringes i got.
I just started this one and am going to keep an active log with lots of pics *nothing to take pics of yet lol.
So i went to the store and bought 75 lbs of WBS(wanted to make sure i had enough), Micro pore tape, coffee filters, honey, and tin foil. none of the stores near where i live had any wide mouth canning jars so i went to the super wal-mart about 20 min away. none there either so i settled with 20 jars of wal-mart brand sauce.
Next i rinsed off the wbs and picked out all the sunflower seeds and floaters. it is soaking for 2 hours right now, am gonna wait till 18 before i put in jars.
Then i washed out all the jars (after making some spaghetti haha). Then i drilled two holes in each lid except for 1 which i only put 1 in (gonna be for an LC).
Now heres what I'm gonna do tomorrow when the WBS is ready.first I'm gonna put the micro pore tape on the bottom and top of the drilled holes. Then I'm gonna load the jars 2/3's full, then PC them in the nifty little PCer i bought today for 90 minutes (the jars are 28oz). Then I'm going to inoc them with the spore syringes (marking which gets which syringe). Then I'm gonna put another piece of tape over the hole that i INOCed.
Gonna wait till they colonize. after that is when i need some help. i think I'm gonna get some more wbs (i figure 3 jars per 1 i have colonized) then I'm gonna do it the same way i did these except I'm gonna pour them into a sterile rubber maid container with the colonized wbs. let that fully colonize. then case and wait for the shroomys.
Any help on anything you can offer would be appreciated. Thanks, also will update alot.

You can't use grain as if it was a bulk substrate (i.e. mixing sterilized grain with colonized grain a.k.a. Spawn out in the open). Grain requires colonization to happen in a sterile environment like a jar or mycobag, as out in the open it will contaminate. Poo, straw or coir can be mixed with spawn out in the open and allowed to colonize.
If you want to make more spawn from your original spore jars, check out G2G (grain to grain) transfers. You will need a glovebox or still air box to do this though (easily made with a clear rubbermaid tub and 20 min of your time.
