Don't disturb the dry Verm layer to much and just keep an eye on it! Good luck.

NOTFALL3N said: take the foil off
The jars in question look like small mouth half pints. They have been known to stall before bottom colonization. The best advice that can be given with these jars is to not handle them. IF the brf/verm becomes compacted, its possible that the mycelium will not spread to the bottom portions...possibly stalling prior to full colonization.
And if you have a dry verm layer, the foil is just about totally useless. It could restrict gas exchange, which could also cause stalling. The PF tek uses no tinfoil over the lids.
could using small mouth half pints explain zero colonization at all? my first round was good but since then I've had a jar or two that simply doesn't colonize at all... figured maybe I packed them down to much originally, like when I made them?
other than that though, I haven't really had a problem with those jars... maybe colonized a bit slower but never had one stall out on me in the half way through

I didnt pack anything down and the jars that i have at tapered jars (slightly smaller on bottom and bigger by the mouth). these were the best ones to use from what i read.

It could be the issue or only one of a few issues. 3 days post inoculation is still too soon to tell however. Growth could take up to 2 weeks to become apparent.

sometimes verm comes with little pieces of black shit in there. It's nothing, its just different colored verm....if it is indeed verm. If not, you will find out soon cuz it will grow fast. A few days to a week and you will know without question.

The best advice for that I can give, is to move your jars somewhere safe, and Ignore them for a few days +. Its easier to see growth every few days vs every few minutes.

I know this isnt a contamination thread but since you said it will start growing fast does that mean that contamination's grow/spread faster?

Though my family history is convoluted, they have never proven that I don't have siblings. Obviously Cronicr is a potential candidate. Straight out of Compton!
