round growth on cakes does not look like pins bigger.

I'd say don't worry about it.  Knots can do crazy things sometimes:crazy:. It's probably just an excessive knot.

If you are worried wet the end of a qtip with peroxide or water, and swab the area...if nothing comes of on the qtip it's ok...if you get a residue on the qtip its a contam.

It's not a pin.  My guess would be that you failed to wait one full week after full colonization before birthing your jars.  Those are common when one births before the mycelium has consolidated its hold on the substrate.

RR's post shed some light on a similar situation I had with a project of mine. I had spawned BRF cakes to hpoo, and when I introduced fruiting conditions, little balls popped up around the substrate. The project gave very poor results - the worst I've seen yet. When I decided to trash the project, I took the substrate out to the compost pile and crumbled it up into the compost. It was then I noticed that a good portion of the bottom/middle of the substrate was uncolonized.

So, my experience possibly backs what RR is saying - weird ball growths can be triggered by a lack of full colonization during fruiting. If you really want to know if this is the case, you could maybe break the cake in half and see :wink: I have no clue why your growth is though, only my own experience to relate. Good luck!
