Cobweb Mold?

After 5 days of no growth from my jars I decided to open one. I noticed that the dry layer of vermiculite was covered in what looks like mold. I'm pretty sure they all are. Is this mold?

Its hard to say,
my guess would be yes.
(You most likely got the dry verm layer wet suring pasteuization.)
unless you inoculated the top of the jar.. lol

Oh man. I knew I shouldn't have prepared and inoculated these on xanax. I just realized that some of the spore solution from the syringe squirted out on top of the lid and i coerced it into the holes using the needle. Not sure why I thought that would work. I just threw that jar into the woods a minute ago. Is it safe to open the others and check?

it's blurry but that could have been mycelium. it doesn't strike me as cobweb.

Ugh it probably was mycelium. I just threw it way back in the woods and it's not possible to find it lol. It was thick like mycelium and root looking in texture.

I just checked another jar and it's puffy/fuzzy. Doesn't look like the other jar.
Just checked 2 more jars. They all have some fuzzy yet clear looking whitish stuff on-top of the vermiculite.

yeah it was probly myc forming because there was alot of air ontop. so it formed first at the top.
If your verm layer is wet. it may or may not contam. Also the myc will colonize the top if its a tad wet.
just lucky you didnt throw them all out.
since you opened that one it may have been contaminated now anyway so dont stress about that one. go get ur jar back lol and clean it with hot water and pc it lol
and now be patient and they should start working their way down.

personally, i wouldn't have opened a bunch of jars only 6 days into innoc from an MS, i would have let it sit a lot longer before i went and opened them
