no sun flower seeds here, just a scrub pad look. it might be just whispy mycelium but I think its mold. add to this that he said colonization halted at 60%, and the weird look on the other jars from a distance view.
You can see the mold spores on the surface of the grain. They're beneath the mycelium in those discolored areas.

A few people here think I got mold and I'm not sure if I want to pasteurize a lot of bulk just to get more mold.
1. Can I just dunk the grains and spawn them somehow? 2. If so, what shall I search for to learn more?

get some manure, dig a shallow hole outside, moisten the manure, mix in hole with grain spawn. cover with leaves/grass debris etc.
no sterility, cleanliness or pasteurizing needed, just wham bam bam!

But your kids know better than to eat mushrooms that grow on the lawn right? From your profile name I guess we live in the same region where most small lawn mushrooms are pretty bad.
If you have a compost pile or something in the end of your garden the mushies like to grow in shades from trees and bushes..

It's not a bad idea, but the house rules are that everything suspicious shall remain in a small locked room in the basement at all times.

Well, then I'd find a nice place to do it on a hiking route or right outside some woods if you like to go for walks. Chances are that animals will get most of it, but I think its cool just to see what happens when I do stuff.
Those will certainly contaminate if you try them inside, better start again and make sure to pc the jars long enough and maybe try to clean up the inoculant on agar
