Lack of fresh air exchange, you need to cut a few holes in the bag or build a sgfc

You also need to loose the heater

:whathesaid:
You might be able to salvage that with a SGFC...Grow kits are usually a rip off...do some research... Start over

It's hard for me to tell from that pic...and you never know what a grow kit has in it... You can post a pic in the contam forum...get a reply from a more experienced grower.:goodluck:

Just search Shotgun Fruiting Chamber... It's the standard... IMO for cake grows. You got to put in a lot of research if you want success... Or get really lucky... Lol...I don't know about you but my luck sucks

As long as you are comfortable... Room temperature... Your grow will be...no heater unless it's winter and cold in your house.

Heating pad is definitely not needed.  I made the same mistake when I first started out, and I grew a few rounds of bacterial jars.  Someone here pointed out to me something that I'm seeing in your tub; which is the "melted ice-cream" appearance, typically indicative of bacterial contamination.

It is bacterial, and too wet from what I see. I agree on everything said. Especially on the heating pad. Poke a small amount of holes into the bag near the lip of the tray with a pen and poke a larger amount near the top. Mist when it isn't glistening/damp anymore. If it's getting too dry too quickly just tape some top holes up.
