 Agar Question: Should I Inoculate or Transfer?

First I went from grain to agar, and then agar to agar. So the pictures are after the 1st agar to agar transfer. I keep them on a shelf and they are 3 weeks old.
Do you think they look healthy or which ones look healthy? I want to know if I should inoculate with wedges or keep transfering. What would you do?

I say transfer.
Those look fishy.

Well, that is why I am asking: I am not sure.
They seem healthy, but some people do 4-5 transfers to get a monoculture. I don't see any rhizomorphic growth on the wedges of my dishes, but still, they look clean to me. Come one guys, help me out here! I want to do the best!

Those are extremely contaminated, looks like bacteria.
Def transfer a couple times.
The third and fourth pics shouldn’t have all those patchy spots and weird looking myc.
There’s definitely some good growth to work with on some of them though.
Compare to these

Alright then, def going to transfer and update this thread. As you see the good growth on some of them, can you tell me which parts I should transfer from?

Yes, both of you guys' mycelium looks great and I want it too  I think it is best to transfer from my 1st and 2nd dishes and don't even fuck with 3rd, 4th and 5th. What do you think?
