i inoculated several types of containers. 1/2 pint, 1 pint, small plastic containers, cups, etc. all have excellent rhizo growth except the 1/2 pints look wet and weird. Are they ok to fruit. it isn't contam or cobweb mold. it is mycelium. they are all 100 percent now.

They took two weeks to get to this. Grew slow just as normal. I think I might have accidentally packed the mixture a but in the jars. It's definately mycelium. smells normal and grew at normal rate unlike cobweb.

Give em another 5-7 days to be sure. Always give your rice cakes a week to consolidate just to be sure, lookin good holmes.

No... you wait 7 days for consolidation.

wait 1 week after full colinisation. This gives mycelium time to break down the food it colinised and prepare for fruiting. Birthing early usually just leads to cakes sitting for that extra time in the fruiting chamber anyway so might as well leave them in the jar where they wont loose much moisture.
The only exception really is if they start pinning in the jars then its time to birth.
You dont always get rhyzomorphic growth. Sometimes you dont see it due to different ginetics all growing ontop of each other, sometimes its just mycelium that grows fluffy.
Rhyzomorphic mycelium is generally a good sign, but it doesnt mean that non rhyzo growth is not going to produce.

Thanks finally the answer im looking for. It's weird. My penis envys have tremendous rhizo but my b+ has zero. I truly hope they fruit good.
As far as spawning im not putting them in a substrate. Just fruiting cakes on top of perlite. Various cake sizes in a sgfc and an automated terranium with pump and mister.

It will even happen with grows from the same "variety" . Working with spores you have lots of combinations of ginetics. thats why no 2 grow with spores is usually the same.
I have 7 mini monotubs going all from the same spore print. 2 tubs produced similar sized first flush fruits, but 1 tub the yeild was about half of the 2nd tub, a third tub is producing really thick fruits compared to the 1st 2 tubs fruits which with much thinner.
I had some tubs that had nice rhyzo growth groing through the substrate and others that was pretty fluffy.
Rhyzos are though generally quite a good sign.

I mixed the 2 parts verm to 1 brf and 1 water but they looked super wet and way too much brf. It's bizarre. i follow the exact same formula with my other jars and they turned out perfect with my penis envys. I'm wandering if it being too wet caused the cottony mycelium. I might have a small yield.

no the cottony myc is really no diffrent from the other myc other then colonizing times, you will be fine

The same culture could change between fluffy and rhizomorphic several times.
