My First Bulk Grow Failed

Hi
This was my first bulk grow and I messed up. It's been 23 days and no growth of myc at all. I think I went wrong at loading the WBS in to the jars as the seeds were supposed to be more dry than how I put them in at.
I was following Frank's WBS tek. I used WBS, gypsum, coffee and water and let my WBS soak in that for the alloted time. I've got the jars sitting in my garage still hoping for growth but I noticed that the jars are full of moisture , condensation inside the jars on their walls.
I'm looking for others opinions on where I could have gone wrong, thanks everyone

How did you inoculate the jars?
-------------------- How to get started in bulk: Presto 23-Quart Pressure Cooker BOD's Simple as FUCK Still Air Box PastyWhyte's Easy Agar Tek Munchauzen's Cultivation Video Series How EvilMushroom666 Prepares His Grains (I use jars with Synthetic Filter Discs) What is G2G? (Grain-to-Grain) Damion5050's Coir Tek (I use 5.5 - 6 quarts of water instead of 4. Also ignore step 13 and ignore the monotub completely. The only purpose of this tek is to show you how to make a simple substrate. I also add gypsum to it but not necessary) Spitball's Monotub Tek (A liner isn't necessary but is useful) Use 6500k lights throughout the whole process. When you wake up, turn the light on. When you go to sleep turn the light off. It's as simple as that.

Pics would be nice. I hope you used good sterile procedures when inoculating those jars..

Without pics im guessing you inoculated with strange spores syringe to grain. In which case it can take extreme amount of time to gerate into myc cell. Same with any coffee can increase the slow or no growth.

In my bathroom. I cleaned the room, bleached everything and did my best to ensure a clean environment. I used a SAB.
I used clean sterile procedure as well.
Tump - I'm not sure what you mean strange spores. I ordered the spores off of Hawks Eye and have had great experience with them in the past. I'm hoping the coffee is the reason that the aren't spreading. I'm unable to post pictures right now as I'm not home.
I see no signs of contam in the jars yet which is great, just very humid inside the jars.

I meant did you do agar, spore syringe, live inoculant, magic?

I'm on my mobile so I apologize for the link.
These two jars look exactly like the rest. No growth of any kind bad or good.
Thanks for the responses guys. In the meantime I decided to start some BRF cakes with golden teachers.

TBH those don't look that bad. When you said they were full of condensation I was worried but, looks like a decent grain prep to me. Might be your syringe is a dud. BRF cakes are more forgiving, if you don't see germination with those then the syringe might be to blame.
