So I bought my first wok, I was trying to season it at my parents house because I have electric stove at home. I guess I messed up it, for some reason it took longer than I expected (like 1.5 hours). When I got home I tried to cook something in it, but it leaves small back crumps/pieces. I tried to clean the wok with sponge and now it looks that the last year is kind of coming of from the wok.

Not sure if it's still salvageable?

my process of seasoning was cleaning it with soap and sponge, applying little layers of oil and keeping it burn/absorbed. I watched some tutorials online, it just felt that my wok is changing color slower.

Maybe a setback, but it is hard to "ruin" a pan. Clean well. Scrape or use a scrub pad to get as smooth as possible. Begin seasoning again. Don't worry about achieving a perfect result after one seasoning. It takes time to build up, and simply happens through use. Be patient, it might take months. Just make sure to leave a smooth surface after cooking, and over time you will be fine.
