LC gas exchange.....None?

So Ive been blessed recently with cultures that move faster than I can deal. Last week I prepped some half pint jars with LC from about 3-4% brown rice syrup. ( It was just an experiment so I didn't really measure well ) 
I decided to try making the jars so that they simply have an inoculation seal and nothing else. No vent , no filter, nada.
Now I know APE is a quick colonizer, but in 5 days My dropped agar wedge exploded with enough growth that the fluid becomes a culture slurry with a quick shake. Im not going to use it just yet but christ, has anyone had growth this fast? Even with APE?
I feel like even if the myc stalls out from suffocating it wont matter as its already well more than enough with a shake to use as is. 
Also the wedge was bigger than usual but it was fairly light transparent myc, and the wedge was maybe dime sized.

Hey thanks, I'm pretty pumped about this jar. I've got 10 others but I'm not to sure about repeating this process right off if it leaves me with 1000 jars worth of inoculant in a week's time!

Im going to do 4-5 more for redundancy just to see if it's a fluke. I'll put a few other cultures in as well to compare, this ape might just be an odd monster.
I can also get a better figure on the recipe later, just need to do some math. I'll update when I do that.

Looks nice bro!
The fastest/thickest lc solution I ever used was a mix of LME/whole wheat pasta and brown rice water and a little drop of karo...
I've since been experimenting and just decided that LME seems to be the most consistent for me.

My plan was to draw via self fill syringe. For those curious to know, I did some rough Math and it looks like I used more like ~1-2% with this stuff:
