no just like single strands of rhizzo'z that shoot out like an inch and will reach right past other mycelium,but yes cobweb would be a good one to spot too lol

Update 1/19 So cronicr told me to give it some more breathing room so I opened up the holes, still the tinyest tinge of of a smell right up at the holes but not as bad as last night.

Colonization is still going good it's about 95% now, most of the bottom is colonized, just that one spot in the pic and under it still waiting for. The others are severely behind.
Which brings me to my next question
Jar B
 Jar C

These are two different jars with really slow growth, Only side for both of them.
Jar B looks extremely strong, but it was the one that got like only .25 CC of spore solution. Also it is starting to show a little yellow in the white on the bottom left side if you look in the pic. Piss maybe? Contam? It grows more every day.
And jar C is just slow as fuck.
I am running up on the 4 week mark here in 3 days. By then Jar A will done, Jar D(unshown) will be at about 90-95% if it keeps going, while Jar B and C here will most definately be below 50%.
Should I let them keep going? Toss em outside? Or cut them up and onto agar? Can you even do that?

it's a toss up, hard to tell whats going on there but the growth does look off, just give it time and see what happens

Even though it's been almost 4 weeks? It would take at least another week maybe two before it was done, surely it would become contaminated before long?
If I did want to take one of the 4 cakes and cut it up to agar. Would it work?

if your in an area where burying is an option i'd suggest it

Well It's new mexico so temperatures can get up to the 100's in the summer days and freezing in the winter. Right now it's like 30-50 any given night. I have one hell of a yard filled with all kinds of compost though.
I see we keep moving away from the agar question though. Not going to work I guess?

Ah ha! Now that's what I want to fucking hear! Definately want to try that before disposing of them outside.
Back to the outside question.
How cold can outdoor cubes get safely?
How hot can outdoor cubes get safely?
How do I take care of them?
Any links you could share to help? I haven't really researched this at all.

It wouldn't be highly suggested because you'd be cloning your slowest jar... Unless your doing your fastest. My interpretation might be wrong, trying to piece it together on my phone lol

you just gotta use your best judgement once you got growth on agar if it's painstakingly slow still just disregard it

Well it's not exactly that it's slow. It's that only 1 of 4 points has growth, prolly from lack of spore solution.
The growth actually looks great, minus the little yellow fade on the bottom left of Jar B. but since its only 1/4 sides colonizing the past 4 weeks in, I don't see how it could continue getting the remaining 75% of the jar in time before contaminating.
All jars showed growth at the same time. But A & D had far more solution the B & C, because I am a noob who couldn't handle the jar correctly.

Lol exactly. So now I got this jar with great growth, But I don't even think an isolate wedge could colonize a 4 week old cake before some contaminate messes it up some before 100%.
So I think I'm gonna take C & D out tomorrow and work some agar tek in. Then bury what's left in a nice spot.
A is smelling less today and is like 95%
D is like 85% just a little slower I think. Dosen't smell.

Update 1/24





So.... Almost done.
Starting to see some weird things against the jar though. Couple of spots in the dry verm layer look like cobweb. Smells the tiniest bit sour at the top. Much better sense I opened the holes up. There is also some weird dots on teh glass like in this picture

and then some spots look kinda yellowy gooey like this next one

Just wondering how long it should be before the spot should be fully colonized? It seems like it may be taking too long, but I may just be getting impatient, and freaking out at all the weird changes going on.
OP updated. Looking for advice and a pro's eye for identification of weird spots..
