nope, it's myc, surrounding Verm, which verm wont colonize,
perfectly fine.

give it a few more days, and birth them, a week more is best, 5 days at least.

werd. well i just realized there is some yellow shit at the top rightish. ive already had to throw out 4 of the jars due to a light light neon green contam. and that was like within the first week and a half of incubation. im gunna wait a a week after it fully colonizes to birth, most def. this is my first time but by doing what RR says, its workin out pretty well.

carmelized/burnt rice flour on the bottom of the jar. the mycelium will colonize hard around it but not through it. It's not uncommon on pf-jars to see several jars per run of these...

lol, i was looking at the reddish brown on the first picture, not realizing it's the flash. not burnt rice flour at all, just vermiculite.
