FIrst Grow, Need some advice

Hey guys, I am doing my first PF tek grow. I have made my jars being as sterile as possible, I uses the 2:1:1 mix of Verm, BRF, H2o. My jars have been inoculated and I have been waiting for growth now for 10 days now. The only thing that I have noticed in my jars is that, right the inoculate ran down the side of the glass the substrate has become brownish red in all four sides of all ten jars I have (the color has not changed/moved/or shown growth at all. I'm not sure if this could be a contam or the substrate is just more moist then the rest of the jar. Also I am beginning to see condensation on the inside of the jars, Does this mean that it isn't getting enough gas exchange? Should I open my jars slightly to gain more gas exchange? the jars are sealed except for the inoculation points

Most likely a contam.
Post pics here for confirmation.

No, condensation is from a temperature differential.
There is something generating heat inside the jar.

No, never do this.
Post good quality pics of the suspected areas.
