My first guesss is if there only growing around the edges, it may be either airflow or moisture related. It may be worth letting the tub go a bit longer to see if you get a serious mold infestation, it's possible it's competing with something in the soil you can't see. Had mold get into my mother jar due to some improper handling and had to toss it all.
It’s been getting plenty of FAE and is nice & humid. It’s possible it’s competing with something else, but I think it’s just genetics. Its parent tub was kinda like this as well. The surface myc is suuuper thick and prone to overlay, and I think that’s why it hasn’t been pinning in the middle. I may try another casing layer, or I may just let it go and keep harvesting the micro-blobs!
