First time growing GT using brf tek. I used gloves, mask, sterilisation. Procedures and followed the instructions to the letter yet today I see this? - what did I do wrong?

You were not lucky? People do not make more jars only to grow more mushrooms but because there is always a chance for contams to get in and cause problems. They are everywhere in the air and on everything.

A still air box or flow hood can help more but contamination can still happen.

If you move them around too much spores can sift down through the vermiculite layer. Or there couldve been a couple bad spores in that syringe that finally grew big enough to see.

Mold caused this. probably technique or your syringe. make more cakes. label jars with the same ID as the syringe, so you can pair them and ID a bad syringe.

Looks like verm pieces have worked their way down.  Are you creating a flat layer between the verm and brf (by gentle pressing down the brf)?.  Moving your jars around too much can cause particles to fall down the side, leading to contamination.

Sometimes it just comes down to not steaming your jars long enough if the mold or bacteria start in the center of the mix.
