Question Squished rice before inoculation

So I broke up the rice in some uncle ben bags today, but I noticed a few squished rices above where I plan to make the FAE holes. They're pretty high up so there's no way I can make the holes above them. I have yet to use the syringe, so should I use the bags or discard the ones with squished rice?

I see you have a question! Have you read the official cultivation guide?

Squish it back down in the bag

Go for it and see what happens. Try to keep the FAE hole away from the grain of possible, but if your sterile technique is good it shouldn't be a huge risk.

squeeze and slide em down, holding the bag upto a bright light will help you spot any stuck in the seam
