Does my mycelium look ok?

This is my first attempt to grow mushrooms. I'm using the pf tek. I inoculated 10 jars 7 days ago and they have been sitting in a closet at room temperature since.
The mycelium looks little off white compared to most of the pictures I've seen on here. What do you guys think?




This one seems better then the others.

Good deal. I was sweating it because I took a few short cuts. No glove box, no gloves period. I just cleaned my counter off and flame sterilized my needle and went to town.
I watched the videos and the glove box with out the attached gloves just didn't make sense to me. Nor bringing the needle out between each jar to flame sterilize. So I figured I'd wing it since I have a couple other syringes if this doesn't work.

Looks good so far but if you are really planning to get serious with this you can't just "wing it". The less short cuts you take the better. Its way too easy to fuck up with this in the amount of time they take to grow. Safety first. You can never be too clean.

flaming between jars is important to isolate contaminant vectors.
but no biggy

I agree. I'm not sure how serious I am going to get in to this just yet. I've been asking everyone in my area for shrooms and no body knows where to get them but yet they all want them. So I decide to grow some for me and my buddies.

I did flame between jars. What I was referring to was in the video he brings his syringe out of the glove box each time. That's what didn't make much sense to me. Made the glove box look like over kill. That's all.

oh oh,
well if you are using a glovebox you need to flame outside of it.
no glovebox no biggy
