too much water in the substrate? pics
    #1326242 -

alrite....i just mixed up some brf/verm and put a little more than 1/4 cup of water in each, and then i sterilized in pot, then innoculated with like 2 ccs in each jar...and it just seems like everything is VERY wet inside....the substrate looks like soggy ass oatmeal

is this bad for colonization??

Well I can't tell from the shitty picture!

But if it looks like soggy ass oatmeal you want to dump them and start over.

yeah... I don't know how that pic is supposed to help us help you. But if your substrate is too wet colonization will usually start but it rarely, if ever, finishes. It'll end up stalling out around the bottom 1/3 of the jar. Cut your losses now and start over.
