Now I know. Thanks. Wish there was a way to just take the whole post and repost it in Contam.

The pics are really too small to be much help but I doubt any of that is cobweb mold. I would just wait and see if any of it changes color if you're not sure whether or not it's mold. If that black smudge wasn't there before you inoculated or if it is growing bigger I'd toss it.

Those pics aren't detailed enough. The fact that colonization is starting from the bottom leaves me concerned though.

Not to mention growing from at least 13 different spots in that one jar. It should only be growing from where the tip of the needle squirted the spore solution.

Yeah, the fact that it's growing from a bunch of different spots kind of freaks me out, although when I inoculated, substrate kept getting stuck in the needle, and without realizing what was going on, I forced quite a bit of solution into the substrate (it went all over the place inside the jar), which might explain why it's coming in from so many different places. I appreciate the feedback guys. I'll post better photos later today. With a camera that's NOT a webcam.

Contaminated.. I vote All
Why the hell did you have the substrate jar in a plastic bag? Go get you some vermiculite and BRF flour, do it yourself, it's e-z.
