Help with slow growing jar <3

This jar has already been colonizing for about a month in 80f temps and while it doesn't seem contaminated by my meager mushroom growing talents I figured it would be better to go here and see if this jar is still going to be able to fully colonize and eventually grow me some golden teachers linked below are all my pics: http://imgur.com/oEi5uVA http://imgur.com/0vmsYHN http://imgur.com/im9ngDT http://imgur.com/jSn4LZH http://imgur.com/glodHER http://imgur.com/HS5fUkt http://imgur.com/tsCWrzU http://imgur.com/tsCWrzU

Im not an expert by any means but have you been shaking the jar to spread mycelium around the jar?

I just got the jar this morning but my friend said that she had overturned them a few times to spread the spores, its standard PFtek with brown rice flower and vermiculite, I believe the substrate is slightly wetter then it normally would be because of too much soaking before inoculation

Tell your freind that she screwed up and you want your money back. Water content is a biggy yes but i dont think that is the problem. Is there even a dry verm layer on top. Did she flame sterilize the needle each time? Im going to wait until one of tc tells you other wise but id personally toss that and start over

It's the sectoring that's going on, along with the time span. For some examples of bacterial jars see the first link in my signature.

with the segmenting in mind, would there be any way to save the healthy growth on one of the sides of the jar and just sprinkle the cake on vermiculite to get one grow out of it before making new jars?

The black bits are way to randomly placed to be bacterial. there is no colony shape

Black mold (deadly), Or bacteria (probably deadly). The thick rhizomorphs are due to toxins. The mycelium is trying to escape the situation, hence the "escape from the jar".
