I’ve seen much smaller examples of that excessive growth in my pf jars but nothing that intense. Did it grow at the same rate as the rest of the myc just denser?

Looks great -fully colonized, no contamination. That spawn you got there is going to want to grow up from a child (mycelium) to an adult (fruitbodies, mushrooms). The mycelium is already itching to form pins. Like faht ^ said, very dense, that tells me the mycelium is looking for favorable conditions to pin and make mushrooms.

That's great news, It was my first attempt and I think I probably put too much in some jars than others lost a fair bit too all lessons learned! they will go in the fruiting chamber once its settled, trying to find the perfect spot so they don't get to hot or cold!
Thanks for the help!

Maybe that’s the case...
Or maybe it’s bacterial causing stressed mycelium which can result in aggressive growth like this.
Whenever I see this type of thing my jars it’s usually that. Which is confirmed when the sub gets yellow spots of metabolites after spawning, as well as an overlay (excessive myc growth beyond full colonization).
But I use grains, and it’s been a while since I had a BRF jar so 🤷🏻♂️
Not trying to rain on the parade, just giving another perspective in case it turns out shitty and you’re wondering why.

What size jars are those? Could just be the picture but they look pretty small.
(No idea if that has anything to do with what you're seeing, just curious.)

Also what a good max/min temp for fruiting?

20-25c (upper 60s - mid 70s F) is pretty good. You can fruit lower than that but it will go noticeably slower. Higher temps may encourage contamination.

You know what that looks like to me.
That is what my oyster mushroom jars look like if I leave them too long.
Is it possible that oyster spores are in your house?

Ideal thanks for that think I can maintain around that level, could I set a small fan to blow/suck air encase it gets too warm?
