Ya I the light brown shit I did spot was some sort of contamination. It worked its way down the jars. I don't see how every singe jar got contaminated, guess i'm going to have to work on stylization and on my next jars. I'll post pictures

Here is jar A:
And Jar B,
 you can see the dark brown better. The jars started out with this first, it was really light brown and started at the tops of the jar and worked its way down.
I threw out all the jars, I should be getting another B+ syringe in the mail and I'm ordering some more tonight. I'm going to have to work on stylization more. Thanks guys for the help and I'll be continuing this forum shortly hopefully with my new B+'s

I think segregating the jars in groups of 2 throughout your rooms might be a good idea.

Haha, I saw that when I posed the pictures but didn't feel like having to take another one. As you can see its only a Identification Card! haha, jk. Well its my 'other' ID and its kinda, fake (shhhhh! don't tell anyone) so thats why I didn't bother changing out the picture

Alright guys, I'm sort of worried. I had to syringes and took them out of the package and accidentally got them mixed up. haha ya i know, I was focusing on keeping everything as clean as possibe and got them mixed together. one is b+ and the other is golden teacher.
Alright, the first picture has 5 jars and they are kept together in a small plastic container. These 5 jars look like my first attempt. I inoculated them last wednesday so that would be only 4 days ago, they have the similar growth as my first grow attempt that ended up getting contaminated.
These jars look identical to my other ones. I'm not for sure if they are contaminated again or if its just the mycelium. If I were to guess maybe its just how the b+ mycelium grows? Any thoughts guys?! it would be greatly appreciated.
--------------------------------------------------
The next 6 jars I like more, or 5 out of the six. They look like normal jars that have no contamination and normal growth rate. They look more like every one elses only after 4 days, I separated the top right jar away from the other 5 just in case.
What do you guys think?

your bottom 6 look more realistic. Those top jars that seem to colonize to 80% in 4 days just make no sense. That's way too fast. I say keep em segregated. Maybe you got bad spores floating around your house in the air/clothes/carpet. Stay sterile man.

Ya, I'm not for sure yet on the fast colonizing jars. I guess I'm going to put them in a separate room. They look fine and don't show any sign of the brown contam that took over last time. This could possibly do something from my vendor. I ordered the syrenge to the b+ and it got returned due to my address and then while that was going on I ordered another b+ and used that one, which collinized really fast or what ever grew, i have no idea. Maybe its just the b+'s I got from the vendor that is causing this? Because the golden teachers I got from them is collinizing at a normal rate and look good. ...
----------------
I just went to open one of the fist group of jars, and it was identical to what happended before. It looks like cob webs on top of the dry verm. what is is?
I don't see how 6 jars got that and 5 didn't when 1 of the jars that got it was in the container with the 5 that didn't get it. I really think it had something to do with the vender and and B+ strain they had. But I'm not sure about it. Well I still got 5 healthy Golden Teachers... i think

DON'T OPEN CONTAM JARS INDOORS BRO!!!!!!!!! You could shoot contam spores for miles if u open the jars. Just toss em. As a precaution it doesn't hurt to take a shower before handling jars in incubation. Personally i believe this to be one of the most delicate times in the spores life cycle. My buddy use to grow from spores. He said that inocculation is the most delicate stage, then incubation, birthing and fruit chamber being last. He wasn't very sterile at all when playing with the FC. He just whipped his hands with GermX sanitizer and picked the fruits. All his jars with no contams had strong rhiz growth. They looked like little white tentacles shooting 360 degrees inside the jar like little white vines. He never showed me cloudy jars. ?Could be too much water? What is your verm/BRF/water ratio. A good ratio is 2:1:1 with cakes

That could be myc dude. I've seen myc mistaked for cobweb before. If it stays white it's myc, grey is cobweb. I think it's uncommon to see grey cob so soon though... Some1 correct me if i'm wrong

I opended it in the farthest room in the house away from where I do all my work and the AC was off with no air circulation and oust was all over the place. Well it has only been 4 days and you can look at the jars, they are about 75% collinized, just like my first attempt on the B+ but then again this is only my 2nd time trying this and I really don't know what myculium is supposed to look like, just didn't think it made a cob web like that? Guess i'll hold on to them a few more days and see what they do.

The verm:brf:water ratio was 1:1:2 with water being a little less because the verm didn't hold it all. I doubt they are too wet, initially i was concerned about them being to dry. And the Golden Teachers jars are looking fine, I inoculated 11 total jars the same exact way, 5 was with one syringe and the other 6 was with the other one. And 5 turned out (with the cob web) and the other 6 are growing at a normal rate. I don't think it has to do with water ratio, how i inoculated them, and how clean everything was. I think its colonizing like that due to the syringe and strain. It's the only thing that makes sense to me

Another type of common mold that can occur is Cobweb Mold or Dactylium. This one can be a little bit harder to spot because it looks very similar to the actual mycelium growing. It will look more like cotton and spider webs, and it grows over the casing layer or on the cake. When it contacts a mushroom, the mycelium soon envelopes the mushroom with a soft mildew mycelium and causes a soft rot. Cobweb mold is a bit darker and grayer than the actual mycelium, and it will tend to grow much faster than normal mycelium. Cobweb Mold also has very fine strands almost fuzzy or hair like and more transparent. Mycelium is a think dense white, and grows in ropes. Cobweb Mold will usually start due to high humidity, you can stop it by controlling your humidity levels with more accuracy and adding better air flow circulation systems.
I just found that from another website. It sounds exactly like what I have. I do also have a high humidity around 45% humity in my house? but then again my other 6 jars so no sort of cob web growth. hummm...
