Too much sun? No pins after 20 days

Hello all.
I had a bit of a search through posts before I posted this but I can't seem to find a direct answer to my question.
I am doing my first attempt at pf tek. I have three jars that seem to be fully colonised so I pulled them out and put them in the sun. I may have misread the instruction here so now I'm worried they are dead.
It has been around 20 days since they left the tank and there is no pinning. I was told these are Ecuador type ones but not sure if that really makes a difference.
It was a really slow time colonising the jars at about 7 weeks total. Also it is winter here so I have had a small heater on the keep temperature at about 22 degrees Celsius.
I'm really sorry I'm sure this has been asked before but I struggled to find an answer.
Here is a picture of my jars today. Anything you can help me with would be much appreciated as I am new to the site.

Well it says you deleted your pic. What kind of FC do you have?

Sorry bit of a n00b with codes. I havnt made it yet but the pf tek says something about perlite water and a bucket with plastic over the top. I honestly think I have a bit more research to do when it comes to fruiting.

Make a shotgun FC right now. Watch RR's videos. Those are still in the jar, they're not gonna pin right.
That myc growth also looks like you have bacteria, but it could just be overgrown.

Sorry but I don't know Rr videos. Could you link me? Yeah I was starting to worry a few days ago. How can I tell if there is bacteria if everything in there is the same colour. Is there a different way they grow?
Sorry to be such a noob with this just don't want them to die as I'm out of spore prints..
Thanks so much for your help.

Search for things before you just ask for links. Don't be lazy.

Just want to say thanks again. I'll post a picture if they end up fruiting.
Thanks so much for your help.

Ok so I went out today and bought a drill bit for my drill and made one of those shot gun fc. I then pulled the cakes out and washed them and put them in the water for overnight. They smell really good, like fresh button mushroom, so I'm hoping you were right in saying they were just overgrown. Tomorrow I will roll them and put in the fc and post a picture. Wish me luck!

Don't forget to wash them under a faucet to remove the verm and anything else which will wash off.
If they smell like fresh mushrooms, you're good. Don't forget to mist lightly and air out the container a few times daily. RR

 Hey this is a week after first pins. There is a bit of blue on the cakes which I'm hoping is bruising, but yeah so far so good. What day should I pick them? They look so good now can't wait to print some and try again!

Yes the blue is probably due to bruising. Pick them just before the veil breaks. Probably will happen in less than a day.
