How long from inoculation until now?

Amanitas kill more people than all other mushrooms put together, so an ID of some to be eaten must be correct. An ID based on a photo on the Internets is not reliable enough to potentially risk your life on. ToxicMan

Assuming the jars are being kept between 65o and 72o, I'd say that isn't terribly slow. What growing parameters are you using? (heat, light, CO2, etc)

That's true depending on the strain (from my experience). I would give it more time and try to be patient. I know it's hard, but at the moment there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the jar, like senescence (if that's what you were worrying about).

Also, if you have jars to spare you might consider putting one in a warmer environment as a "test case."

I have had jars of Oysters take as many as three weeks to fully colonize.
