also I am a little worried about that brown spot at the bottom of thejar on the top edge in the third pic there are some other little spots just like it on the bottom too now and I'm wondering if it may be mushrooms starting to grow but also worried that it could be contamination of some sort

Can't really see any problems from your pics.
They could turn out fine. I have had some that smell like bacteria but the fungus ended just fine. Some have not gone that well.
Just see if they finish out. If they do birth them and give them a good rinse and soak.

thanks for the reply man just birth the one that is done and I'm dunking it now looks really good but the little brown spot does not look like a mushroom pin and the brown spot also left a mark on the jarlike a stain that is very hard to get off
