Nope. None of the stuff in the kettle is harmful and most will settle out, especially if you give it time and don't agitate the fermenter much. Leave it alone for 2-3 weeks minimum, and try to keep it in the 60's but without big temperature swings. Cool and steady is the key, that and patience. It will look and smell all kinds of weird while it ferments...totally normal.

This isn't the last brew with some extra's in the bottom of the bucket for you.
Not sure what your solids were, but if they were part of the brew, it's not going to be a big deal.

I pour the chilled wort & top off water through a fine mesh strainer into the FV. It gets most of the grainy hoppy stuff out. But the floury really fine stuff gets through. But it setles out & with extracts gives about 3/8" of trub.
