I have started a new one with a very thin film of scoby, but the new tea and sugar beefs it up fairly quickly. I would suggest putting in fresh tea and sugar, just the regular recipe, and going for it, considering it good to go if you have a small scoby. Or maybe add another 1/8th of a cup of sugar or a bit less if you're concerned it's just not large enough to maybe give it some more food if you're wanting it to continue growing for another week or so.

Can you get a second jar? lol. It will last longer if you have more ready for the inbetween waiting period.
