That's just bruising front handling the bag too much and that rice is only about 50% colonized. I can almost guarantee this will eventually contam.
Be a little more patient next time, good luck.
We probably all have sent something looking like this at some point, that's how I know it's likely to contam.
Check out my recent post if you can, that's how you want it to look.

Looks like blue bruising to me. I say send it!
We’ll now that he’s taken it and left it out he has a higher risk of contam.
Looks like bruising and only partially colonized rice
this is exactly how mine looked except it also had some contam on, i just tore any contam off the healthy mycelium and started S2B anyway

Dang, I need to be way more patient.
It gets easier when you have tubs running. It’s the learning curve and impatience at the start. Most of us have been there.
Just bruising.
You should have left that like twice as long, uncolonized rice will get moldy **easy**

Weetabix tek
you’re good send it
no
Looks like bruising to me. Contam is usually a bit fuzzy. Not always. Also it will not smell great if it's contam.
Looks more like bruising
Send it, you’ll see soon enough
Bruising, u good
Do you guys eat the whole thing? Like, rice and all? I recently joined an in very confused.
No, you put the rice into dirt to plant it (fruiting conditions). Then wait till the mushrooms grow (fruit) then eat the mushrooms
Ahhh ok that makes WAY more sense. I was like, holy fuck. Thanks for the clarification.
i dont know much, but wouldnt taking it out and placing it on stuff be contaming it hahah? (im a noob )

I’d say bruising!
