First grow, am I doing alright?

Hey guys, I am cultivating a Cube strain "Thai Tanic." My Inoculation Date was on Dec 8, 2011 and it has been about 3 weeks of mycelium colonization and the jars are just about complete, I have BRF cakes and I kinda wished I used the rye grain method instead but next time I will. My cakes are near complete, I started off with 10 half qt. jars and lost one due to a type of green mold, I now have 9 jars and I was just concerned at whether I have cobweb mold or if it is just fuzzy mycelium. I was also looking for some guidance possibly unless I am already doing alright, at the beginning of cultivation I had followed I then decided I wanted to use growbags and coco coir substrate instead of a grow box with perlite like in these vids here that way if there was any chance of contamination I would lose one bag instead of 9 cakes, just to be sure. I hope someone can let me know how I am doing. Thanks. , , , .

Thank you very much that is a relief. That fluffy mycelium was worrying me a little because I have seen some pics of cobweb mold and there seem to be little differences between the two. Sorry I wasnt really thinking when I posted that. I was just so into getting the info out so people got every detail of my experiment. But thanks.

Cool. I have really been into mycology and everything to do with all types of fungi, so I finally decided to give growing a try, and not just for the psilocybe experience but just to test what I have learned and see how well I do. I guess I have just been a little anxious and worried if I had made any mistakes at all and really hoping im doing well. Thank you for wishing me Luck as I wish you good luck as well.

Looks good!!! If you got lids and a dry verm layer you can remove the foil.

Thank you, I guess I havent really worried about the foil, and the verm is dry so I dont think contaminates would be a problem even if the inoculation points are covered with micropore tape on on the lids.
