These aren't salvageable in any way? Those little things are gypsum, there's no yeast granules on the grains.

You wouldn't smell it for sure buy you might. There could be contam and you wouldn't smell it thru the poly. Sorry, I know that isn't much help

I just have a feeling these aren’t contaminated, the mycelium is healthy and white, it’s only the rate of colonization and seems to not be getting there all the way that is bothering me. There must be something I can do. Any ideas? Should I shake again? Also I think that I’m just going to have to pop one of the lids off one of them and give it a whiff. It would definitely stink if contaminated. Any ideas on what you would do? Shake it again? Or just wait longer through the weekend? That would make 10 days post shake.

Smell is a very unreliable indicator. If there's a bad smell yes its contaminated but a lack of a off smell doesn't exclude contamination as a possibility.
Also new growers eyes are horrible contamination detectors. Because your jars look bad and it's pretty obvious
10 days post shaken they should have looked 100% perfect 7 days ago

Really, they look that bad??? What is it about the look that gives you that? Just so I learn for myself.
I’m going to shake one up to break it up and pop the lid and take a whiff. Is it going to be a problem popping the lid in my room to smell?

What is it that looks so bad that you can immediately see? Just so I can learn for myself.

There's plenty of moisture showing at the tops of those jars. I think the dry looking grains is from the gray wispy mold on them.

I agree about the shake time because my Pink Buffalo I did last month fully colonized 6 days after my shake. I was thinking this is just progressing slower, which is how this got started... I'm just going over everything and I did everything the same. I am confident in my sterile technique, and I wore sterile attire, did everything sterile the same as last time, so if something has happened I don't know where it could of came from...? I'm just pondering and questioning everything now... I want to open one and give it a whiff but I may wait another day or so. If it ends up smelling like fresh mushrooms then maybe it is just the way it is colonizing and is slower than usual from some variable.

Stop with the double and triple posting the only growth you have in your jars is weak and wispy

I just want to learn and ask, that's all. When I look at my jars I don't see any whispy, can you tell me where you're seeing that? Because when I go look at them I don't see any. I see gypsum granules that I believe others are mistaking for yeast. I agree it's weak, that was my primary concern, but that's why I was asking about slow colonization time and could just be taking longer...?

Is there some better way you want it described? Tell me what an orange tastes like. You'll get an eye for it eventually.

It's not normal to take longer, a healthy jar would be done by now plain and simple, it would be aggressive start to finish with nice rhizzo growth

Well I just wasted a jar I because I opened it and had to throw it away now - it smelled strongly of perfect fresh mushrooms.

Cool well go ahead and try them out. Eventually you'll correlate your results to jar appearance

I'm not sure if that was intended to be sarcastic towards me and my jars... I'm just wanting to learn, chat, and talk with other cultivators on here and learn man.

If you want to learn, start by accepting the information being provided to you. You have multiple Trusted Cultivators telling you what's going on here. I am a noob and I can also see that that those jars are toast. You gotta remember that mold is also a type of fungus, and can easily ride with mycellium in disguise. Look at the picture Cron shared. That's what you're looking for

I love to learn by doing. In this case, you have what you see as perfectly good jars, but also a general consensus in this thread that they look contaminated.
I suggest you spawn these each into their own shoebox, keeping them separate from any other grows. You'll get to practice the techniques and see what happens. Maybe you even end up with some fruits, maybe not. Give it a shot and re-read this thread when you're done as a post-grow debriefing.
