How Do These Jars Look?

Here are all of my 100% jars right now. I've had some issues with trich lately and I swore most of my jars were clean. Since I switched to oats, all of my jars look a little suspect. The WBS look noticeably better, but I'm gunshy about using any of these. The camera flash definitely makes them look wetter and makes the oats stuck to the jar look bright orange. They aren't.
I do know that I spaced out and forgot gypsum when I was prepping my oats so if that changes anything, keep that in mind.
I shook up and opened a few and they all smelled like fresh mushrooms. Any of these look suspect or what?
Batch #1: Oats (G2G)

Batch #2: Oats (G2G)

Batch #3: WBS (G2G)

Batch #4: Oats (G2G)

Batch #5: WBS (G2G)

That last jar definitely has some discolored shit on it.

They look fine. Some have some slight bacteria here and there, but otherwise look good to me. How old are they? When I switched to oats things looked very different to me. But that's just the oats.

You did a shake and recover, right? If so they all look good to me

They've probably all been 100% for between 5-7 days. A few of the early oat ones were knocked over and broke apart when 100% so they formed back together a little oddly.
Oats have me shook. They absolutely look WAY different from what I'm used to. These are all G2G with millet and they colonized pretty quickly and all recovered from a shake.
What about the little fuzzy specks in the second picture from Batch #1. That looks odd to me.

I try to use grain as soon as it's colonized. Obviously, you can use it a damn month later, but why. It's just going to get weaker. Use it as it's ready.

I've just been super busy with offline shit and didn't have time. I have to build some tubs. And I don't mean mix spawn, I mean actually drill some holes. Getting that done now. I'll try and update this down the line on how they do.

looks good. if your questioning any of the jars that might be bacterial. spawn them together in a tub and keep them away from the rest. what i mean is, lets say you have 8 total quarts of one cube. spawn the bacterial into one tub. that way you don't cross contaminate.

Oats do look different when gully colonised. Defenetly take some time to get used to them. If your worked about your spawn set a jar aside. If it's got trich it will turn green soon enough. Or you could put a few grains on agar and see what they do. Either way I'd just spawn them and hope for the best.

Okay, thanks guys. I'm definitely going to spawn these and see what happens. I'll combine the most iffy looking ones of the same species for sure, eat. That last one is discolored so I'll probably just toss it. Going to make a few tubs tonight and the rest in the morning.
Oats got my mind playing tricks on me.

agree with muda, and actually g2g and LI on oats look much different.
this is LI on oats for reference.

also LI looks much different on all grain compared to g2g. but oats kind of throw me off sometimes. the mycelia doesn't look as bright white like white lightning.

That's what I first noticed and commented on a bit ago. They look way more wispy and weak, but I'm sure they were clean. I'm pretty sure my G2G technique is decent. I'm going to record a vid of me G2Ging tomorrow morning if I can remember.
