the yellow spot looks like mushie sweat... the jars cant breath enough... did you pack your substrate in the jars tight? How many/how big are the hole/s in the lids of the jars?
It looks like you have some blackish, greyish shi+ in there too... may be bad... I cant really tell from the pics, though

Didn't pack em tight. 2 holes big enough for spore syringe tip not sure what size, did it with a nail. The blackish stuff is dry verm that trickled down the side, nothing to worry about. Its the yellow spot that has me worried.

like I said, the yellow looks like mushie sweat when they cannot breath... just let it keep growing.. if you see any other naughty things in there, toss it and start again.. that doesnt look bad though... lol
let it sit, and if it gets worse, then start again.. it just looks like mushie sweat though...

I want to BUMP this, because i wanted to ask why my mycelium is so thin? Is that normal? Its spread a bit since i originally started this thread, but is still kind of thin.

don't worry i just had the same discoloration on my last jars and they came out really nicely. it wasn't due to breathing either because all of my jars incubate without the lid on (with the verm layer exposed)and the color will be eaten away with time.

use wbs next time. Much easier and cheaper. Soak for 24 hours then sterilize

Not sure about that, i have had that in a few jars and they fruited fine.
It looks like metabolites, though its a bit early for metobolites to be formaing, i usually dont seem them till the jar is atleast 70% colinsed.

-------------------- Stop experimenting half way through your first grow. Grow it to maturity, watch it, learn from it. Do this a few times then experiment with different ideas and figure out what works best for you.
