My jars got to 89 degrees for a few hours when I fell asleep!

Hey Shroomery Friends!
I was raising my temp a bit (with my space heater as I do, not a heating mat, I’ve heard that’s a no-no) and fell asleep and ended up having my temps at 89 degrees Fahrenheit. I’ve heard thermal death for mycelium is 104 ish. I’m not concerned about that.
I’m more concerned about contams popping up in those couple hours it was that high. My mycelium is starting to colonize in 4/10 jars and it’s been a week. They’re half pint and I just don’t wanna lose em cause they’re my precious babies with my first grow and always will be. Thanks in advance!
And yes, I know time will tell. But what are some warning signs in the next couple days I should look for?
Cheers!

as long as they are clean, you're going to be fine.  Contamination will grow if they are contaminated. :goodluck:

You'll be fine. Look out for usual things like odd discolorations but no need to go crazy about them. If it happens, it happens. And it won't be due to the short burst of high temps.

Remember, unless you have a probe of some sort in the jars, that's just the air temp. Actual temp in the jars will heat up more slowly.
