1st Time Growers Mycelium vs Contam Comparison BRF PF Tek

Before anyone says this needs to be in the contam section: I put this here for a reason, noobs rarely check the contam section, and it's usually more in depth than they need. I constantly see "Is this mycelium" type threads here anyway so lets just make a good one then... If this could get stickied in cult it would be nice to have all these comparison pictures and new growers jar questions in one place instead of tons of these threads.
To start off:

This color can be deceiving... Especially to first time growers. It CAN be mycelium but likely is some type of mold
Here is a picture of actual mycelium trying to fight this mold you have here.

Another... You can clearly see the difference, and take note how healthy mycelium (Strong round white rhizomes) compared to stressed mycelium (extra thick, forms a border with contam)

This... You have a dark grey and even a pink line. Dark grey is mold, Pink mold is deadly, instant no go... Be careful when you toss this one even. If the first picture wasn't so blurry it would probably look just like this.

Just don't post pictures this blurry. Looks kinda shwag even as blurry as it is though.
This milky type look: Not good... ever... And that grey/black above it? no agian. I see some of that pink as well...

Again, milky and wet.. Probably mycelium at some point but likely destroyed by bacteria.

This is what a BRF jar looks like unsterilized if allowed to contam


 If you see ANY of these colors instead of white mycelium rhizomes, toss it and quit wasting your time.
Now, this isn't a "what not to do" thread so here are a couple pictures of healthy mycelium in the growing process


 Nothing crazy, just jars that worked..
Feel free to contribute healthy mycelium pictures, contamination pictures, or questions/pictures of jars you are concerned about

Well that's extremely relevant. Quite hidden though haha. I like how that thread started but it has deteriorated into too many random posts. Only the first page is any good.. And noobs have no chance of finding that page looking through mush cult... Something about this needs to be stickied to the front of mush cult if not this thread.

I do agree it should be stickied. I refer and link to it quite a bit.
