Those cakes look white as hell, lol.
Most likely just over exposure, but you mixed water and verm, and added brown rice correct?

Hey, make sure you let your jars cool for long enough before you inoculate. Good luck!

Well, I put my jars in a spare bedroom closet with a little space heater in the room and the closet door cracked, room has been around 75 degrees for 3 days and guesssss what!! i see some growth! so fucking excited. dont wanna jinx it so knock on wood no contamination, but damn this is cool. All the research from this site should pay off greatly! I will update with pics once they get a little more growth.

you really shouldn't turn them on their side like in that last pic. I disturbs the dry vermiculite contam barrier.
It'll prolly be ok, but it's recommended you don't disturb them while colonizing.

Yeah i took that pic from the bottom, not gonna disturb that verm layer. Im trying to follow the tek as close as possible, Ive seen some post on here and have been like WTF just follow the Tek. Since its my first time im trying to go by the book. I think if this goes good and i can find the funds for a PC im gonna try Franks WBS tek and get some bulk, this hobby is just too fun

You are a little ahead of me. Did you remove the foil and tape for gas exchange or are your holes in the lids still covered?
