They look good. You need gas exchange (GE) though. Is that tape breathable?

Looks like painter tape, not sure if thats breathable, just take tape off and leave holes open to gas exchange.

Yeah take tape off. Alot of people get paranoid not having anything covering the holes, but thats what the verm layer is for..filter to keep contams off you substrate.

Im kinda new to all this myself but one thing i do know is dont shake jars. I believe only jars you wanna do that with is grain. If you shhake contams will drop from dry verm to you substrate.

There were a couple threads about this a while back which amounted to:
You can break them up and spawn to a tub if you want, but you won't get any better results and the process is more prone to contaminations.
The general consensus was that spawning them as cakes makes the most sense.
