this is the jar with the most of the "water". It is also the first to completely colonize.

I started three agar plates with 1cc each (galindoi), had the same worry about too much liquid on top, however two weeks later they were fully populated and looking good. (I'll know better next time) I transferred those to a batch of grain jars which are happily colonizing right now. Keeping fingers crossed, by growth is looking good so far.

Not exactly. That picture looked a bit more... slimey? After 4-5 days the extra liquid in mine either evaporated or was absorbed by the agar. The mycelium that grew was more fuzzy/cottoncandy looking.
I didn't get any pictures of that stage, but this is one of my jars a few days after adding the agar slice...
