I have got these 2 jars sitting around for 1 week or so after full colonization . The bottoms of these jars in some points looks like uncolonized (and it didn't change in the past week )other than that all around is pure white for one week . but i think it is because the cake is pressed to that side because of the shrink can you confirm if these are good to dunk today ??? If not i guess i ll still wait a few days.

nope it was flour without additives anything . mixed them up as rr tells in his videos seen some flour tend to stick to each other but mixed it so hard that i got tired of it . nowhere else looking like this . and there was condensation within the jars when i flipped them i've seen that part is sticking to water on the bottom . then i flipped it and the condensation moved along the sides to down where dry verm is .

Anyway the inside of the cakes should be penetrated by the mycelium right ?? since theyre looking exactly same since the photos in last week . I can see even the patterns of these uncolonised dots . Maybe these spots are colonised by %20 since last week , but im thinking mycelium doesn't want to take over it since its soaking wet .
actually hot air rises so it should be moving out from the innoc holes by logic . and there are lots o condensation on bottom and sides so i don't think drying is also an issue . When i flipped them i've seen the water droplets sticked to the bottom when the cake was moving down , i've seen the droplets extending between cake and glass the when far enough they sticked to bottom which is up now and they went down through the sides with my help .
By the way nice avatar made me want to do something like that =))
thanks for your comments i guess i'll wait for 7 10 hours hours since i flipped em now and then birth them maybe they can do sths in 7-10 hours.

Sounds like your cakes are a bit saturated (with water). The water logged parts have a hard time colonizing. If you have areas that are not colonizing, you might want to gently scrape those areas off the cake after birthing. It's okay to take a little mycelium with the chunk, just don't leave any uncolonized areas which could harbor contams.

When you find yourself in a room full of colonized cakes, Stop, Dunk and Roll. It may save their lives.

they look ready. They've shrank in size right?
I concur. Stop. Dunk. Roll.

so i know i ve been asking this over and over again , but over the last 2 days these things are flipped nothing changed , these spots are just as they are , even after magnified inspection everyone of them match the picture 2 days ago , I want to be sure because these are the 2 cakes that i was expecting to fruit for new year , so i want them to fruit , but i want them to also have no vectors for contaminants , i dont know what those spots are but i can see whatever it is verm or brf it's been pressed down with the weight of cake so it looks compact and dense , so i dont know if that is something to be colonized and afraid to dunk it now =(
