What are the size of those tubs. About how long did it take to fully colonize. Did you notice a major increase of growth in just 2-3 days. Usually contams will burst with growth, and before you know it your substrate is covered in it. These are all things to remember, looking at your Substrate jars every 4-5 days to check everything is well is OK. Handling them constantly is a different matter. (not saying you did). I'm guessing you follow the BRF Tek to the T?

thats OBVIOUSLY healthy. the 47 noobs that are gonna chime in today and tell you its a contam are full of shit. so just ignore them. birth it like a normal cake. it should do fine. your only gonna get a few grams off it tho. maybe do something neat with it? like spawn it to something? you know, for practice. in any case itll turn out just fine

Probably just fluffy/cottony mycellium, if it smells like mushrooms when you birth it, its good.

and yes i did follow the tek!

I like to order from mycosupply.com I usually get Malt Extract Agar. You might want to buy some other light things like a spare inoculation loop or scalpel blades, that way the shipping fee actually seems worth it lol
