Pictures 4 &5 look normal. Condensation on the sides of the jars is pretty standard, nothing major to worry about. Picture 1 could potentially be cobweb mold... keep an eye on it, see if the stronger white myc overtakes it. Picture 2 looks okay. Picture 3... I'm too new to say for sure what that is, but black spots usually aren't good.

I'm super new, I just yesterday grated my first cakes to coir in shoeboxes, so I am no expert when it comes to how things look, but It looks like at the VERY least you'll have 2 good cakes, and there's nothing wrong with that!

Use bigger jars! The same 2 or 3 drops will grow just as well in a pint jar. Just saying, it's a place for it to grow. Bigger jar bigger cake!

If it's sterile and sealed it doesn't matter. Just a longer wait.

doesnt a longer wait mean a higher chance for your cakes to become contaminated?

How it's a sealed environment? Have you read the invetro tek. You'll dig it knock them up and leave them.closed. once colonized and pinning open. Super simple!

Nothing is 100% sterile, esp when boiled in a pot rather than a PC, plus you have holes for gas exchange in the jar..You only have around two or three good weeks on average to fully colonise, which is why smaller jars are better for PF tek, as it allows the mycelium a fighting chance to fully colonise first before it contams
