My jar is looking strange on top

So, I’m about to do some totes and this jar looked off to me. The texture of the stuff on top does not look like mycelium, but it’s still white. I’m not sure about it, any help is much appreciated. Thanks

could we get more pictures of the jar? definitely do not spawn with that right now since its not fully colonized - which will lead to contamination.

Thanks for the reply. Here are some more pictures. Yeah I just set it aside if I think something is contaminated I don’t even mess with it. It’s nice to know if I run across it again.

Nah, I haven’t shaken them at all. I’ve noticed some thick mycelium growth in some of the other jars. But not sure it’s that’s mycelium or not

Do your jars usually not colonize on the top like that? I'd give the jar a shake and see if it can bounce back quickly, it should within a couple days given the % it's already colonized. If it doesn't start re colonizing quickly just toss it.

It could be some thicker Myc. Give it a shake, recovery will tell you allot about the health of your jar.

Also just for future reference, use the search tool for the mushroom cultivation thread and type in "uncolonized jar top". or something like that - when you get another issue it will help you out a lot

 It kind of looks like the start of trich to me but ive got newb eyes. Youll know for sure in a couple days if it turns green lol. Might just be thic boi myc or maybe ur jar is a bit dry? Almost looks like the top grains have dried out like in a few of mine.

Thanks for the advice guys. I’ll give them a shake. I’ve had a lot of jars not colonize on top of I don’t shake them. If I’m in doubt I just shake them And see what turns up. But I haven’t seen anything that thick on top before. Just wanted to see if anyone has had experienced anything like that

You know I almost said trich but its so fuckin hard to know just from pics of the jar, myc comes in all shapes and sizes  the grains do look dry to me though - given how they look and the way the myc is growing on them
 heres some jars I have goin' right now right jar is drier, left is more supple compare and contrast as you wish
