Couple questions

Hello everyone, I have a couple questions.
1. Inside my jars there seems to be a "fog" of sorts. It seems to look like foggy glass but on the inside of the jars. I been letting them sit in 78 degrees for about 3 days now. Wondering if this is a sign of the mushrooms starting to form and letting off gas. Or if it is a sign of a contamination.
2, I used long grain brown rice and ground it up with a blender. I have chunks throughout the jar but it is throughout the entire jar. It is spread throughout the jar and was curious if this slows the process or if it helps the process. Or perhaps that i should ground it up better next time.
3. I followed the PF-tek and was curious on when i should see signs of germination. The tek says 3-5 days. Curious on if this varies with strain or process. I followed the tek completely.
To make it easier here are the questions without statements
1. I have fog in my jar. Is this sign of growth or contamination? 2, Chunky brown rice good or bad? 3. WHen should i see signs of growth with chunky brown rice within the jar?

1. Condensation is normal.
2. It should be just fine.
3. Spores can take 2+ weeks to germinate and show growth....be patient my son.

Thank you kindly good sir. Yea, its my first real big growth attempt. I would do 1-2 jars and just put them away. Forget about them for a while and they would show growth. This growth however, i did about 14 jars and just a little anxious. But i need to be patient is right.

The short wide mouth half pints work much better than those tall skinny half pints. They colonize a lot quicker and are less prone to stalling on the bottom

I don't have any Ace hardware stores around. I am also going to post pictures every couple days to see if anyone's thoughts change. I did a total of 14 jars and all of them seem to have the same growth. From what people on here and from dmtnexus.me they tell me its healthy and give it time. In about 3-4 days i will post more pictures.
