grain spawn Grain to Grain Transfer (G2G)

[Mush Zombie 26298]

Grain to grain transfer is one of the best ways to expand your grain spawn greatly, using very little in comparison. In this tek I created 14 jars of grain spawn with one jar of grain spawn. However, 90% of contaminated subs come from contaminated grain spawn. It is VERY important that you be extra careful and practice sterile technique to the extreme. This is not one of those parts of the hobby where it is ok to cut corners. Use a glovebox or flowhood. Shroomology has a couple of excellent glove box techniques in the glove box tek section. First start by wiping everything down with iso alcohol including hands, arms, and jars completely. Bust your colonized jar of spawn to get it ready to pour. Next, loosen all the lids of the jars you will be transfering colonized grain to. You want to do this quickly to minimize exposure of air. Open up the jar of grain spawn and start pouring in some grain spawn into each jar, individually, by opening the jar, pouring it in, and closing it up immediatley. Shake your jars up very well, and its done.

I usually only inoculate 10 new jars with one jar of spawn, but I just felt like it this time LOL
