Coir Bulk Grow Stalled W/ Pics

I did a bulk grow with coir, and I made the mistake of peaking a couple times. It colonized but wasn't going the speed I was hoping for. Then I read online to keep it closed and it should be at a temp of 74-80, or something like that. I went out bought a heating pad, put a trash bag on it, threw a comforter over it and left it like that for about 5 days. Came back and it colonized quite a bit more, but it had alot of water on top, so I soaked that up. Let it sit for 2 more days and this is what it looks like:

Pretty sure these are pins, the water is giving my pictures a yellow tint, I'm pretty positive its not contaminated.

Any advise on what to do next?

i'm almost certain you have bacteria, don't ever put a heating pad under your sub, heat the room

it doesn't look rite. even if it's just bad lighting and that's not bacteria I would say it's to wet. lose the heating pad and keep an eye on it. It doesn't look 100% colonized yet so give it a couple of days before you fruit it.

Thank you guys for your quick reply, where exactly are you seeing the bacteria and what does it look like? I looked closer and what I thought was pins was actually part of the wild bird seed. I realized its to wet and not field capacity. I ended up just throwing it in fruiting though, cause I didn't see your reply until just now and i figured i didnt have anything to lose. Could I put it back into colonization and be fine?

actually you might be better to fruit it any way. giving it some fresh air might help dry it out a bit. fan it often. the bacteria I think I see looks like a yellowish slime. for your sake I hope its just bad lighting in the picture. good luck
