At least one of those is pretty unquestionably an oyster. The small flat one. The other one looks really funky and mutated.

Im gonna let it keep growing out as long as it doesn't get any mold on it. If it is I suppose it wouldn't be the first time that a vendor has switched out some spores accidently or otherwise.

Im concerned with my other box as well, after reading more pages on this tek I noticed that I didn't add enough spawn, it was like 1.25 of spawn to 2.25 of coir verm with a light top layer.
The other box is colonizing slowly, here it is today after birthing my jar and mixing it on 06/15:

What concerns me is the side is looking a little yellow:

Right now my projects are moving slowly, granted Im not doing things exactly as suggested other than the showboxes, but Im having a good time and enjoying the hobby.
Right now I have,
The dubtub-mono-SGFC thing??

And the shoebox shown above, I just made more jars last night and I will nocc them up tonight with a new syringe and while Im at it I will try getting my agar to colonize. I made agar and squirted it with an old syringe I had in the fridge and after 3 days it has not growth.
Its been a fun journey for my friend.

I think you should be ok with a 1:2 spawn-sub ratio. Just keep going and see how it all pans out.

Should be totally ok if the spawn was clean. The thing about low spawn is if there's any contams present/hidden in the spawn, then they will have a harder time outgrowing it and reaching flush
