Most of my hard are all colonized except for the bottoms and some have a noticeable bit of water moving around in them as pictured below should I A) leave them as is B) flip jars upside down Or C) birth the cakes now Any advice is greatly appreciated I searched the forums but couldn't find a direct answer with this problem again thanks in advance.

Well i certainly wouldnt throw it away because of a bit of water on the bottoms. Birth the jars as usual. Ive had quart jars with water all the way to the middle of the jar and no issues. You can always break it all up and make a small mono from a few of them that have water. Fruit it like you normally would. Water is a mineral and you should dynk the cakes in water anyways prior to birthing.

Just wait it out, definetaly dont flip them, you'll wet the verm barrier and they could get contaminated easy.

Wuuut lol. How'd it have so much water in there? Maybe tried to pressure cook with no soak/boil, just add water to grain in jar, then pc?

The reason I said that is because the jars look terrible to me

Well there all practically fully colonized with some pins and no contams so I don't know what you mean by they all look terrible can you elaborate why? I've read that condensation is normal in the jars when they are almost ready to be birthed I just thought this was quite a bit and did not want it to lead into any bacterial growth so can I birth them safely with the small dime to quarter-sized spots that don't appear to be 100% fully fuzzy colonized or is it better to just wait it out a few days and then do my dunk and roll also should I skip the dunk since they're already pretty wet and only dunk after the first flush or would you recommend still dunking after birth?

So out of these jars which would you say are bacterial and why? I agree with the the one pictured it did look a bit more fuzzy than rhizomorphic like the rest seem to be.

The op doesn't look "fuzzy", it looks spongy and slimy.
The other jars look fine as far as I can tell. Why are they still in the jars though?

The bottoms aren't fully colonized on some. Although two are pinning quite well and the rest look like they are starting to.
