Almost 4 weeks in at a steady 70 degree cooler. They seem dried out on top and a little yellow and grey in some areas. Would love some experienced help as I am first timer.

Looks like a contam to me. Get them out of that damn cooler! Its probably a bacterial playground.

Thanks, I bleached the shot out of it.  It doesn't have to smell bad to be contaminated I guess?

We're you handling them alot? definitely leave them alone when colonizing. Cause any contams in the top layer of verm will make it to the rice flour.

The Problem with PF TEK with pint jars is that contams often outrun the mycellium. In half pint jars it can get fully colonized faster.  That's what I've read at least.  Follow the teks above and you'll crush it next round bud :thumbup:

Bad idea. Will most likely hinder gas exchange and stifle their growth.  You want your holes to be exposed with the dry layer of verm to protect from contams.  Watch/Read the links I sent

Or polyfil lids or tyvek or sfd's or micropore tape.  There are lots of ways to skin a cat, but covering your holes with regular tape is a bad idea.  Do more homework and you'll have more success

painters tape is very porous. prolly equal to masking tape. I find it hard to imagine that it restricts ge :smile:
