Looks colonized... Why didn't you fruit that when you had pins? I see some funky looking colors in the bottom left but it could just be the lighting.

It looks wispy in areas but I've fruited tubs with wispy myc and gotten flushes. I still say it looks like you have a bacteria/incoming mold problem but it's colonized enough to fruit.

Second and fourth one look funky. Can you snap a pic without the shaking? Brace your camera on the lip of the tub and then take the picture. They are certainly being slow if they aren't colonized after 3-4 weeks.

Define funky? I thought all my first blocks smelled funky cause i wasn't used to the mushroom smell. Bacteria usually causes fruity smells.

It's hit or miss every time. Some people get away with it. Some people don't. I would pasteurize properly in the future. It's super simple once you do it a couple times.
Sweaty sock smell sounds like bacteria for sure.

You don't need either. Read my teks on pasteurizing in jars. And a SAB has advantages over a flowhood in some respects, for small grows.
RR's manure prep shows proper pasteurizing: http://www.mushroomvideos.com/Horse-Manure-Substrate
I properly pasteurize every substrate, whether coir and verm or more. I don't ever fuck with hit or miss things anymore.
