Like I said this is my first time growing. They are b+ and penis envy strains. I inoculated them about a week ago. I have them in a plastic tub where its a constant 80-85f. I was just wondering if this is normal and any tips or hints would be helpful . Thanks

looking good bro!! but take them out of the tub and remove the foil. NEVER go over 78F with them because contams like that temp range(80+)
you will see a big diff on how fast they will grow when u do.
with the foil on there ur constricting GE.
u did the pt tek right?

Yeah! I did the tek thing haha, I just kinda watched it and read and did the best I could and hoped for the best not really thinking anything would happen (cause I heard it takes a few times to get it right) and I checked a few days later and was like woah! haha so I was pretty excited. . SO that looks pretty normal? I should take the foil off? I thought that was to keep help keep contams out?

Foil off and keep em at room temp, preferably below 80F.
The first and last pics look good. The middle two ... well keep an eye on them. They don't look as radial as they normally should. Not trying to worry you, but it's best to be safe than sorry. I would separate them from the others.

well I was worried cause we keep it pretty cool in our apt (about 70) and I didnt know if that would be too low and slow or stop the growth? But I should put them somewhere cooler you think? Cause That first one (with the most growth) was in my room for about a week and nothing happened and as soon as I put it outside it like grew over night. I dunno though I'm green to all this haha.
Oh, and winged what do you mean the other two dont look as radial?

Good looking myc. Agree here - foil off. Gives you GE - gas exchange. The foil will limit GE.

I'm still confused should I keep em outside or inside? Everything just seemed to grow more when I put it outside.

Mycelium tends to spread in a radius. Those two pics looked different is all. Not trying to worry you because the pics aren't the best for seeing up close. You'll be able to tell in person more than I could from those pics. If they look like the other jars then no need to worry.
Keep them in the 70's. You'll see decent results without hovering in the 80's and in temps that contams like.

Keep it between 70 and 80. More than 80 is pushing it. Take off the foil. Verm barriers/tyvek lids are the contaminate-stoppers. Don't mess with them and be PATIENT.
Radial = spreading out like spokes of a wheel. You've got poor GE by the looks of it. How many inoc holes?
Glad to see a new grower!

Poor GE as in gas exchange correct? Cause of the foil? gotcha. Oh, and 4 holes per jar. But on some its only growin on 2 spots or just one a lot but not the other and some in random spots nowhere near where I inoculated em. But whatever somethin is growin lol.
