an unorthadox G2G question

i inoculated 7 grains jars about nine days ago with a MS inoculation. yesterday went to check on them and 4 of them were doing really well (id say 50-75% colonized) so i shook them. but the other 3 weren't doing so well (they were only about 10% colonized or so) I didn't shake those.
-what I'm wondering is: i have 3 grain jars that just became 100% colonized that I'm going to use for my next batch of jars as a G2G transfer. can i use the extra left over from that g2g and add some colonized grain to the 3 jars mentioned above to try and get those jars to colonize?

its unorthadox but it can be done.... i always like to work with the fastest jars also. For example if i innoc 5 jars and 2 of the grow super fast and the other three are going slow. I will use the two that were the fastest for g2g so those will be speedy also.
You don't want to inoculate a bulk substrate with a slow moving strain. Im not saying its impossible but if you can select your speed you choose the fastest.
so personally i wouldn't even use the slow jars.. but thats just prefrence and experience.... maybe for an outdoor plot or somethin.

Yea I see what you sayin. If you do it, do it in a glovebox or try out the oven tek.

hahaha. no dont try that. ive had mild sucess with doing this exact same thing in the past with some jars that were extremly slow colonizers. you can try it but def do it in a glovebox and wipe down all the jars (master and recieving jars) good with alcohol.
but like was mentioned above, give it a little more time first and see what happens.

hey dont knock the oven tek...:) before i had my glovebox thats what i did and had damn good success. i guess that depends on how clean you keep your place. gloveboxs are easy to make and and cheap. plenty of teks here for em...yea i guess your right in knockin the oven tek...Nevermind bout that oven tek, my bad!
