Why is my mycelium growing so slow?

Well it's coming up on 4 days after inoculation, and I really am seeing no difference from the night I inoculated. The only thing which might be different is that there is some off-white stuff smooshed up on the sides of the jars. It doesn't look much like mycelium at all, because it seems so be in random places, not the spots I inoculated at. I think it might just be the BRF, but I can't be sure. Any ideas? Should I be worried?

Well I never had alot of luck with cakes,but 4 days isnt very long.Try giving it another week at most. but I usually saw growth in about 7 to 10 days.pics would help to.Also are you using lc or spores,also an incubator helps speed things up.

Well I just zipped them up in a black duffel back at like 78 degrees. I inoculated with spore syringes from spores101.

If after 4 days there's no sign of growth you're probably going to die.
Of boredom waiting for the natural growth cycle to complete itself.

And this will continue for about 3 months or longer.
