I Fucked My Rye, Then Tried Something Different

So, I was making jars this weekend. I prepped my rye, loaded the jars, then pc'ed them for 90 minutes at 15 psi. I noticed a buttload of moisture in the jars after the pc, and I was pissed at myself for fucking up the rye. Instead of chucking the rye and trying again, I baked the jars for 1 hour at 250º without the foil covers. While they were still hot, I shook the hell out of them and let them cool. I shook them while they were cooling also. When they were cooled, I inoculated them with some Burma spores I had.
Today, I noticed little white spots in the jars. Fluffy, snow white...definitely not contams.
I'll post some pics when the growth gets bigger so it shows up on a crappy phone camera.
Wish me luck!

"Snow white" could apply to contams as well, unless you're pretty well versed at identifying different types of mycelium.
Also, I usually take Rye out to dinner before I fuck it, that's probably what went wrong.

Oh, don't get me wrong. I'm not ruling anything out yet. What struck me was the solidness of the spots.
I'm staying positive and hoping for the best. I had no expectations from these jars, so anything that grows will be a wonderful little surprise.
If I fail, it'll be another lesson to n00bz that you can't fix wet rye.
Win/Win.

Okay...here's what I got... That dark spot in the middle is not a contam, its a gap in the rye.

Thank you and thanks to everyone for being supportive!
I got 3 jars like this, 1 questionable, and one with nothing. The questionable one is wispy, but not bright white. May be cobweb...may be my cataracts.

The jars should be good to go as long as you didn't open them. Am I missing something here? You removed the FOIL and not the lid or filter. How wet were the jars? Water droplets on the inside after pc'ing are normal. You just cooked them in a steam bath. What wouldn't have water droplets on itself?
This ain't some experiment. I am not seeing a bunch of blown up berries. I bet they were fine. I doubt the oven did much assuming you had the lids on.
Let's say something like this did happen though. Open the freshly pc'ed jar, pour the grain onto a cookie sheet, let it cool in the fresh air. It will dry out big time. Put back in jar, pc again.
-------------------- Stop experimenting half way through your first grow. Grow it to maturity, watch it, learn from it. Do this a few times then experiment with different ideas and figure out what works best for you.

Oh, there was a lot of water pooled at the bottom. Honestly, I freaked out that I got it wrong.
On a bright note, they seem to be coming along nicely. They were about 30% colonized, so I shook the jars a few days ago.

Everything smells shroomy and seems to look okay still. Honestly, the rye seems to smell better to me than cakes. Not that cakes smell bad, they just have a funkier smell than rye.

I already got my coir, verm, and tub waiting!

looks killer
