First time grower

I’m at like day 57 of my first grow. These pics were taken a few days ago. I’m not sure if my jars stalled or if there’s something else going on. I bought a Midwest grow kit and had them in an incubator Between 82-86 degrees. I chose the substrate jars on The Midwest grow kit to grow out of. They are Half pint jars with a brown rice flour combination and vermiculite at the top. I had Cambodian spores and it said they liked the heat So I kept them in that range. Also the humidity has been at 40% almost the entire time. I do not have them at my place. I already threw out one jar because of signs of contamination. I don’t really know where to go from here.

The pictures are of 2 different jars. The first two pictures are two sides of the first jar. The third and fourth picture are of the second jar. And I’m not really sure how to upload pics yet but I will figure it out !

What’s the problem?
They look like they’ve been ready, pretty sure there’s some knots in there.
The good thing now is they should fruit quickly once you take them out, and maybe be more potent from the extra consolidation time.

The pictures I’ve seen of when they are done are usually covered full white. That’s good news for me. I always thought that top layer of vermiculite would Be covered in white also. The next thing I was going to do was birth and dunk them for 23 hours. Is that what I should do ? Or should I put them in the mono tub like I was going to Do a bulk grow? I have 11 half pint jars and 5lbs of a bulk casing mix from Midwest. I was going to do a bulk grow but now I think the ratio might be off Since I threw away one half pint jar. Like I said I bought a kit and in the kit came perlite But I wanted to do a bulk grow.

No the verm won’t go white.
One jar won’t make a difference, personally I hated doing cakes and think bulk is the easiest best way to go, but some people like them.
If you have shoeboxes you could break up 3-6 jars for each one. If you go bulk definitely put like 1/3 inch or so top layer on after mixing everything up. That’ll give you a lot more leeway with surface conditions.

Its time to birth them, like a week ago. Hopefully u have a SGFC or Humidity Chamber built already.

“ Midwest's Premium Select Bulk Casing is the perfect combination of Coco Coir, Vermiculite, Hydrated Lime, Gypsum, ph buffers, ph stabilizers, mineral water and a few other choice ingredients.”
That’s what it says In the site.

The kit doubles as a humidity chamber. I’m not sure how to explain it but I know what you meant. So I should take them out and put them in water for 18-23 hours or not ? I’ve read that you should dunk them. But I’ve also read it’s optional. I do know to break them up and mix them Into the bulk casing.
I’m very anxious now to get to them tomorrow. Thank you for your responses so far.

Yes I would dunk them if you are planning on fruiting them as jars. I am not sure if dunking is a good or bad idea if going to shoe box. I imagine all of the moisture you would want in the bulk casing material is there. If they have had a chance to consolidate in the jar you might be better off dunking and rolling and going to birth in a SGFC.

I would only dunk them if you’re keeping them as cakes, but it won’t hurt either way. People used to soak their grainspawn before going to bulk.

Idk man that’s 17 days since spawn?
How thick are your casing/top layer?
Hopefully it’s knotted up right under the surface otherwise something might be wrong.
Can you see knots on the sides of the tub?

Should be 2-3 inches on top. I’m going to look for knotting on the sides today.
