 Darker greyish mycelium after opening the jars

So these cakes stalled for a few days at 90%. I decided to open them to let a little fresh air in. Bad decision. They seem to have darker white/grey forming right after i opened them. As you can see the top half colonized nicely but then stalled, where the grey starts is where I opened them. What kind of mold is this? Are they usable or should I just toss them?

EDIT: When I say open, I mean crack them a little bit. Not actually take the lid off.

Look fine to me. Probably just a little bit wetter down near the bottom. I would birth them, they look ready. Actually seem to be very healthy.

*phew*. 
Yeah, the bottom of those two arent finished yet, but thanks for the complement! I plan on waiting a week after full colonization to birth like RR said in his video.
