I think this is a jar full of mold, and that mold is secreting it's own metabolites.
Either way, it's contaminated. You won't be getting any mushrooms from that jar, I am sorry. :sad:

Do you have any pics of it before it was fully colonized? Just to be 101% sure this would help.

That doesn't look bad actually, much better in the last pics.
Could just be the substrate pushed against the glass making that color.
Something about that type of glass is making things look off.

Best way to tell at this point is to smell them, if it smells mushroomy and not earthy or moldy, it's fine to fruit.

Have you had a chance to open one up and smell it?
If it's fully colonized you can open it safely.

yep smells like shrooms also crumbeled the cake to see if any contams inside-found none all nice and white but it was kinda unusually soggy, usually do 2/3 vem 1/3 water 1/3 brf(2 cups verm 1cup water 1 cup brf), sometimes when i steam out my pressure cooker the tin foil I use to cover the glasses rises up and maybe lets some water in(no nice jars in this area), so any verdict?

Ahh.. these are glasses with foil on them, and it goes up eh? Yeah I'd bet money water is getting in during the sterilization.

Shitty.. my best advice is find some jars xD. I've been known to use pasta sauce jars lol. But this was grains to bulk. Wouldn't work too well with pf tek.

Usually it goes well, when steam gets out gradually, and water not higher then half the glasses searched all over this area, no jars, even buy this jam just for the jar, can't eat that much jam though, need like 50-70 of them so=] what r those yellow things?

okey took some more pics. and noticed that the yellowish stuff has some patches on the glass it self (the cake shrinked a bit) also the watery parts u see are more like a gel then a drop, can it be maybe just brown rice stiking to the glass or something? though the yellow tone of it hmmm, anyone?

The yellow wet spots are bacteria/too wet substrate for the myc to colonize properly. Sorry thought that was clear when I said it was too wet lol.
