Is this mycelium?

I inoculated with a p cubensis spore syringe like 2 weeks ago and this is what has gone off so far, but I'm worried that it's not mycelium that's colonizing the Pf tek jars. I can't copy and paste the bbcode on my iPad, so peep my gallery if it not to big a hassle. Any response is great thanks yo.

Not seeing any jars in your gallery. Upload the pic to the site and copy the post link and link the photo to your post. You'll get a much better response.

If I'm seeing the right photos (the ones that contain bottom view images of jars with WBS), I would say that you have healthy growth in all jars so far. Might want to wait for an expert opinion though.
I would say things are coming along nicely!
What temperature are you incubating the jars at?
Is there any gas exchange (IE-Polyfil filter, tyvek cover, etc?) on the lids?

Those pics are super blurry. Looks kinda iffy.
Wait that's brf? what size jars are those? Pf tek calls for 1/2 pints. Those will undoubtedly stall before 100%.

Jeez.. Yeah that's mycelium alright, but which tek did you follow bud? Haha. Like mupet said, pf tek says to use half pints, I haven't seen quarts used successfully for pf before, those are for grains. Good luck

The temp is gone.
But yes those will almost definitely stall before 100#. Brf jars for pf tek are supposed to be 1/2pints. I would go ahead and make more with the right size.
I mean... You probably used a spore syringe right? How much did you use per jar?
Maybe if you had made LI and made the brf way on the dry side and used like 50ml of the LI, then MAYBE it would work. But... Yeah go ahead and make new ones at the right size. Keep those, and see what happens, but get started on more for sure.

Yeah when you follow a tek, you need to follow every single aspect of it, to the "T". At least until you have multiple successful grows and have done enough research to know how things work.

It could possibly work.. But if it does colonize you will have to work to get it out of the jar as well because you can't simply shake and break em up and pour like grains. Either way, those jars are going to take ages and may not even work out so I'd get another batch started.

Well that isn't entirely true. You can crumble and spawn brf cakes to bulk.
But regardless, I highly doubt those will fully colonize.

Sure you can, that's about the only way I could see that even working. Obviously you couldn't get it out as a cake.. I was saying you can't simply shake it to break it up and get it out. You'd have to spoon it out or something.
