Not a problem, just make sure the dry verm layer is heaping out of the jar a little and use your lid to "smash" it down a little, this will ensure it stays in tact as the cake colonizes. They shrink to some degree as they colonize which can compromise the dry verm layer.

I defiantly did I'm hoping I didn't put to much actually . Its my first grow so this is very much a learning period for me. wish me luck lol . Do the jars really need to cool for 12 hours . I feel like mine are cooling rather fast

You can't put too much dry verm on the top, it will only help. Remember the inside will be the last part to cool, but generally if they are just a little warm to the touch you are good to go :peace:

1. Do what you should be doing already and keep your house clean.
2. Get some grain (wbs,rye, corn), soak and pc. I really do dislike corn, but it does work and I use it if I got it.
3. Carefully inoculate. Even before using a SAB I have never seen a contam at this stage, except with corn.
4. Wait.
5. Pasteurize bulk substrate. I usually fill jars here, cover with foil and use a thermometer in one of the jars inside the pc, unlatched to watch temp. There are some things you may have around that you can easily increase your yield, like gypsum and chicken shit compost.
6. Case.
7. Wait. I closed the bag until the jar was ready.
8. Wrap with foil and fruit. Start misting fanning

Doesn't get easier than that.

It takes almost nothing to go from here to monos.

You just said evaporation is hardly a pinning trigger for psilocybe cubensis?? Ok now it is 100% confirmed that you sir are a joke and don't know ahit about cultivating mushrooms. Why are you even bringing up oysters?? This isn't an oyster yek, its a cube tek, and everything I'm saying has to do with cubes. And evaporation is the biggest pinning trigger for cubes, that's a scientific proven fact. Anyone reading this can do a little research of their own on that one thing and see for themselves that you are full off bad info. Re name this "how to grow mushrooms the lazy way" and then I wouldn't have even commented at all.
And to say that a lazy, out dated tek full off WRONG and BAD info is good for beginners is just horrible, how the hell is it good to teach a bunch of bad techniques that will have to be un learned to a begginer?? That makes no sense at all.
This isn't about knocking on someones "style", I'm hating on this tek because it is full of WRONG INFO, period! To each his own, bit ibhave been doing this a long time and I feel o have to let peeps kno how bad of a tek this is. If you are serious at all about this hobby then please go to a real online mushroom community and learn from peeps who know what they are talking about.... If you want tongrow an eighth or so of shitty mushrooms so you can watch the walls melt a little, but actually learn almost nothing of how to grow mushrooms, then carry on, this is the tek for you!
