i was screwed by the keeper! I inoculated 12 jars only 6 actually started of the "NJ-6" strain whatever that is if anyone knows please tell me, anyway i am down to my last colinized jar and i have yet to get any fruitbodies, i have tried with perlite, and also in bulk substrate routine in a large plastic bin. When i tried in the perlite i had about an inch of water then about an inch of perlite and i think i saw pins but it turned blue and started smelling funky and nothing happened, when i tried in the bin cobweb/green mold grew and that was it. I do not know what to do with the last jar i want mushrooms. Whoever helps me out i will send a print of this supposedly untouchable mushroom. Please give me as much detail as possible because this is my first time and i spent a great deal of money and i am losing hope...

dude that N.J strain for like 90 bucks right??lol..i can get it for 12$ sorry u got ripped but id say that if the jars colonized, then you are the one messing up somewhere. maybe 2 inches of perlite some h2o2 and 1 inch of water. did u use a light? and how was your heat? and did u shake syringe to distribute spores? sounds like only the 6 jars got them cause u didnt distribute them properly.but sounds like too much water not enough perlite..maybe u rotted them with all the water during the pinning stage..thats why u thought they were pinning then they smelled funky cause of the rot.did u set them strait on the perlite? then id say they got contams or rotted cause of the water. use h2o2 to fight cobweb mold and help keep perlite contam free.
i am a newbie so im probably not much help. i just started my first 30 jars a few days ago they almmost dont in just a week. the pf tek was dummy proof for me. u should work on cleanliness if contams are a problem. did u air out the co2.u know co2 kills the little devils. u should air out at least 1 time a day.some say different.anyway
peace and may the force be with you always
