PF question.

Hey people, I have a question regarding some PF style cakes I recently saw. They were mostly covered with mycellium, essentially all but part of the bottoms of the pint jars. Aluminum foil cover. No contams. Mexi-Cube innoc'd 4-21-2006 according to what he said, and I guess there has been visible growth starting about 5 or so days after that.
There is some condensation inside the jars, some rhisomorphic growth, but these little drops of water are not collecting at the bottom, just chillin on the sides between myc. and glass. The incubator went a little warm for a couple of days about a week ago, to about 87 deg F, but is now about 84. The growth seems to have halted mostly. He turned the jars upside down for a couple of days, but isn't sure what to really do. Should he worry about the network completing its colonization in reasonable time? Worried a little. Any ideas..please! Thanks

yes i did use a dry, empty layer at the top. if i open it up i'm worried that i might lose more moisture that i should and/or invite contams in. so if i were to cut off the foil lid, my DRY, warm incubation chamber probably wouldn't be wisest choice. maybe squirt a little bit of water/peroxide mixture down the sides (inside)?
