Spawned to coir 2 days ago...PICS

Ok I spawned to coir as per Oatmans tek on the 27th(2 days ago). What I did was mix 1 qt jar per tub I used. Using 1/2 of a coir brick per tub. The tek also said put some colonized WBS ontop to colonize the top quicker and be a barrier to contams. Which I did.
My qt jars werent full quarts as I dont think most are. So as I said, I mixed 1 qt jar per tub. So figure 3/4 of a qt per tub. Then I took a 3rd jar and split it in half putting each of these halfs ontop of the two tubs. Like it said, add a little more to the top to barrier against contams and colonize the top 1st.
So 2 days later I looked through the side, saw a ton of growth (presumably just the top WBS I put in each tub. Anyways I took pics, and here they are.
Any comments would be appreciate. Is the fact that the top is gonna colonize superfast compared to the rest of the tub below going to cause any problems or no.??

The Oatman tek for coir spawning had a quote in there by RR about nitrogen additives. He said 1 tablespoon I believe of bloodmoss per 10 cups of spawn, im not sure the exact quote, its in the tek thread.
But when I put the brick of coir in the 5 gallon bucket to saturate with the gallon of ater. I put in 2 table spoons of bloodmoss and mixed it around. Other than that, just straight coir and the 2 tablespoons of bloodmoss.

looks good. Straight coir works!
kinda chunky on the top, but oh well. It'll grow nicely!
as for additives. I've been adding lime at 1 tsp per brick. (had been using gypsum) but i found that the lime casings resist contams and will most likely make it to the 3rd flush.
all in all... the best additive to add to your coir is horse poo. I've been using "STERILIZED" horse poo. (that's right, I said it, Sterilized)
it's been working like a charm. No need for all the... did i pasturize at the right temp? did i pasturize long enough? why do only 3 out of 4 casings grow without trich?
My advice, Kill the germs! there's still enough nutrients in the h-poo that can add to your coir. the mixture is real fluffy, and the myc loves it!
