Any updates on the jars Shroompuncher? I'm growing B+ for my first time also and was wondering how yours were going.

Really? No growth on any of the jars? What day are you at now?
But hey, at least there is ONE positive about the "no growth" situation... It doesn't seem like you have a contam problem at least.

It's been 8 days I believe. And yeah, I'm glad for the lack of contams. I'm thinking maybe it's a bad syringe . I'm gonna try to knock up a couple more jars tomorrow with the rest of the 2-3ish CCs I have left and see what happens. I thought surely I'd see a sign of something by now.

Is these the only syringes you have as well? I mean, this is your first go so you only have x amount of syringes from the same supplier?

Yup, 1 syringe from the same supplier.

I know. Patience isn't my thing but I know it's required for growing. On a side note, if I had any contams from sterilization procedures, would they have likely shown by now?

In the past couple days, I've noticed some darker spots in my jars. At first they were very subtle but now they're more noticeable. They basically just look like wet, dark spots on the substrate but there's no way they've gained any more moisture.
Here's the only clear pic I could get but it's on a couple jars. They're not really a different color than the substrate.. just darker.

Signs of mycelial growth?

The dark areas sound scary to me, but I'm as much a beginner as you are so that's more or less the extent of what I can offer on the subject.
But yeah, congrats, you got myc in that last pic. Let us hope it's the right kind. =)

Get hold of a magnifier glass, get a cheap but powerful one. If you look at the growth, and you see strands all radiating from the point of origin like the hub of a bicycle and the spokes, it's mycelium. You might be able to see it without tools as well.
Mycelium grows that way, mold grows chaotically.

I had an amazon syringe that did that to six of my jars. Made the sub darker. I thought maybe I used too much innoculant so I let them sit a few days..with no change. Took a whiff and almost gagged.
I would say those are no good ime.
The jars with the white I would say are deff myc.. atleast that's how mine looked when it started

The ones with the dark spots smell pretty sour. I forgot about smelling the jars. I'm gonna move them into a completely different location in case somehow my smell is off or they recover, which I'm not counting on. And the one with white growing must be mycelium because it's fits all the characteristics you guys have listed above. Even the one jar with myc smells a little funny but I have allergies and I don't know exactly what I'm smelling for so I'm gonna keep my eye on it. I'll keep you guys posted!

I don't think smelling the jars is a good idea, because I assume it involves opening the lids, which exposes them to contamination.

Well you don't open them to smell until they are fully colonized.
In some cases you can smell it thru the holes in the lid.
