Are you sure those aren't metabolites? Sometimes metabolites in PF style jars can be a little on the reddish side. I think it's a reaction to vermiculite maybe, because that metabolite color pops up in PF jars quite a bit. I'm just throwing that out there.

Agreed. This is what I found when I opened a pf jar. It was right under the inoculation/gas exchange hole and was caused by contaminants landing on the verm layer. When the mycelium reached that spot, metabolites were exuded from the mycelium to fight them off. The jar fruited normally.

I'd be more worried about the brown color, unless it's just from poor lighting.

i'm not so sure about the red, it could have been mushroom metabolites, but there is definately some black shit in there. see directly right of that mycelium running down the side? right on the edge of that mycelium you can see that black streak going down. right after I made this thread i trashed the cake and washed the jar in the dish washing machine and the black stuff was like stuck on the jar like some hard ass glue even after i pulled it out of the dish washer. never seen anything like it really.

Hopefully, you dropped the jar into some water and boiled it well before opening. Otherwise you risk spreading that stuff even farther.
