Link doesn't work for me. You mean 2,5ml spores per jar?

Why are they black/blue? Why do you think you overwet the verm? You didn't follow the tek ratios 2:1:1? And finally 3,5 days is not too long. After a week if you have nothing then, get worried.

Yes 2.5ml spore solution the reason i think its too wet is when i did the ratio i followed a youtube video 3 cups verm 1 cup RO water 1 cup brf in that order. I didnt feel the verm was wet enough so i added like 150ml more water almost a whole bottle and it seemed at the time to just slightly be overwatered so i draoned out all excess added brf and mixed it in. Not sure what clumping is acceptable but i kept it minimal my next failure was not seeing the video properly lol i used the twist lids to prop the jars up off the pot and simmer steamed about 2 hours. The jars simply had the metal/plastic covering and aluminum over top idk if that wpuld have let moisture in but lids were secure despite no twist cap. Sterilized everything inocced into pre drilled holes (4 of them). Oh forgot to mention dry verm layer half an inch or so on top. My main issue is the crystalline looking stuff idk if its smeared brf or what i see shiny specs lmao forgive me but complete nub here. If i could show pictures it wpuld be so much better. If you saw the pic in the link the damn jars are tinted blue lmao i didnt even think much of it when i bought them but it hinders a clear view in which is basically what has me nervous

It looks like you used those aqua-tinted canning jars. That is going to make it harder for you and us to see what's going on inside.
From what little I can see, nothing looks overly wet and you need to wait longer before a lack of growth is concerning.

Update this morning. I simply made the pic my avatar to make this easier. I think we have lift off boys. As you can see now what i mean by crustalline lookin goop or whatever all around the glass but then i noticed this morning the more mycelium lookin white area. Its direcrly under an inoc hole as well. Hope theres no bad news from yall >.>

looks like a good start if that is indeed a clearly growing white area. Check out the differences between mycelium and mold. The crystalline stuff you are describing from what I understand is just grains of rice powder.
