Jon believes it is time Scottish sides begin to string together more than just one or two victories before falling apart. Consistency is not something that abounds in Scotland rugby at present.
"It's very difficult for Scotland, we have major budget issues at the moment, but we have a lot of talent and I am quite confident about the season," Jon told Planet Rugby.
"We have a great amount of talent coming through, but now what we need is experience, we don't have a lot of depth at the moment and the young guys really need to start playing a lot more games at the highest level.
"It's about time we started playing consistently, we have to start producing results week in and week out. Last season we played one or two good games and then lost poorly - that has to change."
Glasgow has suffered from a lack of seasoned campaigners, but the arrival of veteran winger Kenny Logan has done a great deal to bolster the ranks. But Logan's move back to Glasgow at the beginning of the season was not without criticism.
"Kenny is a really exuberant player and he is hugely experienced," said Jon. "We are an extremely young team and we need that core of experience desperately.
"A lot of people were not happy about him coming to Glasgow - they were worried that it was all a big marketing ploy, but he's been fantastic and has come in as a player.
"He's really excited about being back in Glasgow and playing in Scotland and that sort of thing rubs off on the rest of the team. He's really been fantastic."
Next up for Glasgow is an encounter with the Dragons at Hughenden on Saturday, and it is a game that could reveal whether Jon and his team-mates are on an upward curve this season or rather just the best of a struggling Scottish trio.
But they will take heart from their gritty 12-10 victory at Old Anniesland last weekend after holding out the Gunners for prolonged periods of attack - despite having the use of only 13 men before going into the break.
"These games (derby matches) are traditionally very tight and we were very encouraged by the result," said Jon.
"Holding out with 13 men before half-time was the turning point, but it would have been heart-breaking if we had lost.
"But defence is the key in the Celtic League, you're not going to win by playing flash rugby, you have to learn to tough it out to win matches."
