I'd say to be prepared to spawn, or case that jar. Before doing so, however, after the mycelium is broken up and media closure removed, a good "scent-test" (give the mycelium a wiff) to tell if the sweet mushroomy smell is detected should be employed before proceeding to the next step.

I think he's trying to say his tub is azurescens.

I think he's commenting on the fact that it doesn't look fully or evenly colonized. Was your bulk substrate and casing layer at field capacity? Since its a casing layer you don't need to wait for 100% colonization again, but it does look a little oddly uneven, and perhaps dry. Wouldn't hurt to spray it up.

That mono looks all crazy... You have odd holes on the bottom, and a bunch of them. Along with the big holes you have too much fae. I can't even see condensation on the sides. Tape up all the bottom holes and stuff the poly in the big holes a little tighter. Should up the humidity.

Huh??? So the Azures are in the monotub? Or in the jars? Or do you have 1 mono of apes and 1 of Azures? Everyone is confused.

Neither of your tubs follow the typical standards we usually see at the Shroomery. You may have had success with these tubs, but now you are not.
The tub with the cakes does not seem to be getting enough FAE; I don't see any holes in it and your perlite is shallow. Basic Principles of the Shotgun Fruiting Chamber (SGFC)
The other tub, the one with the holes and stuffing, looks dry. The walls are all dry except where it looks like you may have been misting the substrate. Using tape to cover holes is a hard way to control FAE and RH. I'm not really sure how to fix it except to make a new one. More misting of the substrate may help with drying. Spitball's Monotub Tek
Most of us have a hard time fixing problems caused by teks from other websites.
