First jars

Hey guys and gals!
So I just started my first brf cakes, Most of them are looking pretty good. I accidentally was giving them too much light so they are starting a little early...
However I do have this one I think may be contaminated, I saw a light greyish spot on one jar.
It was pretty much fully colonized, Its been more than a week or two sense the spot first popped up. I'm assuming I should just toss it and better safe than sorry.
But let me know what you think, the camera definitely makes it look way worse than in person.
Today was the last day it should have been consolidating so let me know what you think.


This is when I first spotted it, I honestly don't see any change from when it popped up first expect that now its fully colonized.





An then I also had this one that looks pretty good but the mysy has started to look just slightly different.
Thanks for any help!

Looks good to me. Looks like it's a little dry. I'd go ahead and birth it. I'm not entirely sure what area you're questioning but the top looks like the dry verm layer shifted a little and the bottom is bruising imo.

Last jar looks wet/bacterial.

Yeah I knew I should have Photoshopped a circle the jar. It is on the bottom left of the pictures.
I was hopping it was just bruising as well but wasn't sure it could bruise inside the jar.

For the last jar you are talking about the mycelium right?

Thanks for the info so far.

No. The wet little verm pieces that the mycelium can't colonize and the wet substrate all around it. That's why I'm guessing bacteria.

Mycelium bruises when stressed. Usually from being too dry/drying out. The jars look good. Dunk and roll right now :smile:
