Alright here we go, here's one of the jars. I think the flash kind of ruined it, but you can make it out still

Jar 1

Jar 2
 Any advice is appreciated.

It could be bruising. But it is really hard to tell with out pictures.

Hmm well it's moving very slowly, and I'm thinking it's either endospores from the grains, which wouldn't make sense since I soaked them for 16 hours and then simmered them for 50 minutes, then pressure cooked it for an hour. I heated up the syringe until it was red hot and put the syringe in a alcohol soaked rag between innocs. Could it be the starting of Myc perhaps? Does anyone know if thats what it looks like just growing?

It sounds like it could be the start of your mycelium network.
How long ago did you inoculate?
If the area you are describing continues to fluff up and turns white you are in the clear.
If it gets darker then i would start to worry that the jar is contaminated.
Hope that helps, pazzy

Seven days ago, going on eight I inoculated. They've been kept at 75 in my desk drawer, then moved to a TiT at 80 to 85. I've noticed this growth about three days ago now.

I've never seen blue mycelium germinating from spores. It's too early for bruising, which comes after the mycelium has fully colonized a substrate, and then been damaged. You'll need to get a picture to get real help. RR

It kinda looks like pins are growing in there. Lots of them.
But on my display its looks like lots of green, maybe my colour balance is off
