I have some questions if it's ready or not

Hi guys! So after months of trying to get contam free jars I am finally successful. The last piece I was missing was the SFDs. I thought I didn't need those... Wasted a bunch of time... But anyways they look great, but I'm confused why a few grains aren't colonized yet? The whole jar is. That's Golden Teachers.
And my second question is - do you think the Albinos are 100% or not yet? I just want to make sure I do this right, now that I am at the finish line.

as far as the grains, i bet that's probably just a thick deposit of CO2, similar when you grow in large vats the mycelium sometimes won't reach the bottom because not enough oxygen is there. I've read people just usually flip the sealed vats to rotate the air a little but in jars i wouldn't worry too much about it, a little shake might help out. IMHO from what i've read but i'm no expert so don't take my word for it.

Yea I didn't think about CO2! I'll rotate, see if it helps. Don't want to shake it right now though. I've read to just shake once at 30%. As I understand you don't want to unnecessarily stress the mycelium

Just wait a couple more days and it'll be fully colonized.
It's only 100% when every grain is covered in mycelium, it's as simple as that. Do not attempt to spawn uncolonized grains, they will contaminate!

I guess I can't tell if Albinos are fully colonized. It looks all covered in myc, but would you wait till it's a thicker looking white growth? I was just thinking that Albino strain may look different and more 'wispy' as compared to the others or something... But also common sense I think that myc is myc, so Albinos should be as covered as GTs

They both need a few more days, there are still uncovered grains so you can let it thicken a bit.
I marked a few grains that I'd watch if I were you:
