I hope I don't get contams- what do you think?

Hey, I just put 9 PF TEK jars into my incubater.
The reason I am making this thread is that because when I pc'd my jars the lids might've loosened a fraction and let some moisture into the jars, and I know contams like moisture 
I inoculated this morning out of my glovebox because I couldn't get the right angles to insert my syringe into the cakes (due to a small glovebox). I still flame sterilised and used isop. 70% alcohol to sterilise the area.
Mabye some reassurance or am I fucked? I'm pretty sure I hit everything else spot on.

when you see green, you are screwed.
until then just look for the white and keep your hopes up. start a new project. be patient.
report back with pictures if you expect a contam

no, not always.
sometimes it could take a month. especially if spores have to germinate first.

i don't know about that one. i've always gotten the first signs of mycelium growth within a week. the first little white spots. and im pretty sure the time before that is the time it takes to germinate. im no expert, thats just what i've seen.

lucky you. don't rule out the possibility though. I agree, I have seen it take a month. not often, but it happens.

A month under worse conditions probably.
I am using a controlled heat in an incubater which should (in theroy) speed things up.

it should work fine, just watch out for trichy or any other contam.
