Did you make these jars yourself or pre made?

The jars were pre-made, it was my first time so I wanted to make sure what I was getting was completely sterile or close to it. But I inseminated them with spores, making sure to take all precautions to lead to the lowest chance of contamination. Hoping this turns out well cause it's very fun hobby so far and I don't want the first time be a failure. If all goes wells planning to do a bulk grow next time.

If they have a dry verm layer, i'd remove the foil. It blocks gas exchange.

The foil is pretty loose fitting, watched a good review on the kit I bought from midwest by Gordotek and he just said to leave the foil on there to help with contamination. If u just want the pre-made jars you can buy them separately from the kits which is pretty cool, planning on doing that uncle been tech I read a bout when I do a bulk grow, anyone have any experience with it and if so how'd it go?

Oki doki, was thinking about colonizing agar with my mushrooms spores after the first harvest but I heard I'd need a flow hood but alas too expensive at this moment in time

You don't need a flow hood. An SAB (simple plastic tote) is totally sufficient.

Thatβs why theyβre so creamy. Looks like the mycelium has company. Thatβs a lot of growth for 9 days from a spore syringe if that note is accurate. Flat, smooth on the glass, wet.

Looks a bit wet to me. Bet they will make it to harvest, but think thereβs def something else in them jars.
Wouldnβt be surprised to see bottoms or last piece of these never quite finish.

Okay okay appreciate it, I heard with jars like this if water pulls at the bottom you can flip the jar so it has a better time colonizing that, so imma try that if I have any problems

The dry vermiculite layer is to help prevent airborne contamination. What happens to the dry vermiculite layer if you invert the jar? You wonβt even remove the foil layer because of the potential for contamination. Iβd let them sit for another week and see what grows. Iβd also take the foil off but others would disagree. You purchased tall 1/2 pint jars that you inoculated with a purchased spore syringe and the jars appear to be contaminated. Makes it hard to figure out where things went wrong. But itβs your grow and you can do whatever you want to.
