Well the deed is done I just injected my first jars ever. They are kit jars so I'm hoping for the best. But about to order some new PE syringes. Wish me luck everyone.

Follow the directions for success I see a few things wrong already
Even with a kit you should read and follow the PF TEK.
The jars should not be in a tub. They should be on a shelf or table.
The foil should have been removed after sterilization. The dry verm barrier is the filter. Leaving foil on increases your chances for contamination as the verm layer gets moist and then doesn't act as a filter but rather as a highway for contamination to grow into your cake.

PE isn't going to grow very well on cakes like that, they prefer bulk substrates with a casing.

PE can work on cakes but it takes patience. And an eye for cakes

There's nothing to tell. You just have to have the experience to know what it should be like
