When two different species are present in the same substrate. Generally the more dominant species will win out and you will see only it's fruits. I've put pans and cubs together and only the cubes showed up in the end. Whe oysters and cubes were mixed. I wound up with only oysters. If a tub is spawned with two species and they are kept to oposit sides of the tub you will likely see both species of fruits since they each have a chance to colonise there own area of the tub before one species can take out the other.

I'd be interested to see myc wars between reishi and oysters. Reishi is stronger and colonises pretty fast but oysters colonise quite quickly and fruit much faster. Maybe I'll try it out when I have more time.

That is a more dominant species germinating and taking hold of a substrate already colonised by a less dominant species. The pans still fruit because they were already established but they aren't strong enough to keep the cubs from germinating and taking over a portion of the substrate.

Are you sure it was germination of your cube spores and not some mold that got in when you opened them.

It really depends on the species. If you mixed cubes with a fast agresive wood loving edible like oysters. The cubs would likely be completely over run.

If germination started in 5h3 middle of the jar you are probably OK. FYI coffee filters do next to nothing to protect your jars frome mold and bacteria. The pours are much to large to be used as a filter.

When I said middle I was referring to the inoculation site on the side. Not the center. If your growth started on top after opening them you can be pretty sure it's contam.
