How's this tub doing?

This tub has been colonizing for around 5 days now. I went to check in on it and it looks off to me.
I am not sure if what is colonizing is mycelium or mold. I have a feeling it's the bad stuff though. When I opened it has a faint smell of sour milk. I'm guessing some sort of bacterial contamination
Is there any hopes for it?
Its CVG prepared in mudafucka's bucket TEK
Ratio 1:2 spawn to sub
Spawn prepped on wheat kernels
Temp is at 79.2F

Did you smell your jars when you opened them to spawn to bulk? It looks like mycelium to me. And I know that my coir verm and gypsum always has a weirdish smell after making it.

No not all of the grain. I had read some threads that it's okay leave some grains exposed. How can I correct this, if it's not too late?

Yes I smelt each and every jar and they all had that mushroomy smell. I had a few fine metabolites because I late spawned it but all the jars had a mushroomy smell to it.

It looks like it's doing fine...as previously said about covering the grains, you wanna save a bit of your sub to put on top to cover your grains next time so they are not exposed... let it colonize the rest of the way. As for the smell, I don't know...I'd wa it and see if it colonized all the way.

Actually there is no need to cover your spawn with bulk, they recover and colonize very quick. I would drop the temp by 5 deg for colonization. The higher the heat, the better mold will do

I actually have some extra substrate left still bagged up untouched. Should I use this and cover it up or leave as is?

Here is a picture of another tub I did.
It's be B+ and highly rhizomorphic. I think I have some knotting already forming but I am waiting for the first pins to show up
Monotub Age; 5days Monotub stats; Spawn wheat kernels, CVG sub, Ratio 1:2, Temp 79.2F

Nice, you will usually see knots on day 10. Its like clockwork for me, 10 days after spawn I see knots with a 1:2 ratio

I've never experienced this before. I popped my monotub cherry and it feels sooooooooooooo good.
In this tub I was experimenting a bit and added like 2 extra parts of substrates and it colonized so fast.
I am waiting for day 8 to fruit the B+ tub but it all depends on how fast it is going
Can you confirm knotting?

I don't see any knotting yet, it still looks to be colonizing.
Here is what my tubs look like before I put them into fruiting

Patience is the key in this hobby, don't pull the trigger too early. Its okay too be do things a tad later than you should but never a good thing to rush anything

Nice knotting! That's from your thread I believe correct? About the year(?) old mycelium?
Trust me, I've got a lot of patience and don't plan to pull that trigger just yet. 5 days is early for me, even for this fast paced tub. Thank you for the tip though I always keep it in mind

No that's a pic from a pe6 tub from a little while back. Took the pic for a reference of knotting and fruiting time for noobs basically.

Good luck man, keep us updated. Knots in 5 days would be my guess
