Possible contamination ?

Hello. I've been using a kit for the first time and two jars have some orange spots. I hoped you could help me with identification - Is this some mold/contamination, or some natural mushroom metabolic outcome or just mashroom tissue pressed against the glass really hard?

Could just be rust spots....I'd give it more time maybe.
Once you've inoculated BRF jars you can remove the foil if you have a verm layer on top.

That honestly seems like a tough one to me, have you noticed the spots grow in size? The mycelium looks pretty healthy otherwise.

Optimism is key! It's not a show stopper OP...if it finishes colonizing you should definitely fruit...I hope it doesn't stall so close to full colonization. Good luck OP

I've been out of town for about 10 days and today was the first time I checked the jars. I will observe the diameter from now on.
I've read that it could be the result of relatively high temperatures in the early stages.
