Live viable mycelium or something else? *pics*

So I used some spawn jars about 10 days ago to start an outdoor patch. Well I left the "empty" spawn jars in the bucket that had my substrate in it. I went to clean that stuff up today and found that some of the grain was still in the jars and to my surprise, it looked to me like the mycelium was still alive on it.
So, you guys think this is still good? If so I'm going to try to G2G it into some new jars.

Don't remember. There were 4 jars total inside the bucket. A couple of the jars had lids on a couple were off. But the lid to the bucket was on. So wasn't a lot of air current in and out either way.

you could make some mycl water and use it to shoot up some more jars.

Sorry but that sounds like a huge contam fest to me... I wouldn't expect much from that. They were exposed to open air as you spawned the grains, and then maybe continually exposed from then on... i would expect them to have some kind of contaminant spores that will start to grow on contact with uncolonized grain. But hey, i guess you wont know until you try.. just keep it in mind.

The question is who will win the race? The already living mycelium or the contam spore that still must germinate?
I'm gonna put my money on the mycelium winning. I'll post pics of the jars in a few days from now.
