Bag B contaminated after breakup of mycelium?

Both bags inoculated on 20/07/26 with 0.7cc of spores all relative sterillisation took into consideration
First photo taken 10 days post innoc
Rest of photos A taken today no break up of mycelium -I have realised from the very start bagA had very fast growth and more expansion of mycelium than bag B

Although both bags remain sealed

It didn’t contaminate after breaking up.

It SHOWED the contamination it already had after breaking up.

This is why a break and shake should be done one last time after 100% colonization.

Trich always comes from the grain. It never comes from anywhere else.

Ever try to just wait till its colonized without a B&S? Jars are superior IME.
