Don't take it off, picking pins will definitely reduce the yield and you can dunk and roll with pins on it wont hurt or kill them (I have dunk and rolled with pins already on before too) just be careful not to damage them!
If you are very worried you can always just birth to the FC without dunking first but it will probably slightly lower the yields too.

Don't panic if you get pins when the cake is still in the jar, as this "invitro pinning' is a sign that the cake is fully colonized. light exposure can also trigger pinning in the jar. wait a couple days to birth the cake if you want, or do it sooner, the cake is ready.
After you birth the cake make sure to dunk and roll, you will notice the mycellium will slowly start to colonize the outside verm layer that you rolled the cakes in. you will start seeing pins soon after, but it will take about a week after dunking in the terrarium to see any pins Mist and fan 4x a day minimum if using the shotgun terrarium, and have a 6500k (cool daylight) light bulb on over the terrarium for about 12 hours a day. The light, the fresh air exchange (fanning), the humidity (from wet perlite + misting), and the non-nutritive casing (the verm. you rolled the cakes in) will all act as pinning triggers. Make sure so keep the temperature between low and mid-70's F.
It often takes longer than 1 week to see pins, but do not panic if this happens just keep following the guides and you will soon have some fruits to pick. Good Luck.

That cake is ready, why would you wait two more days? Since it is pinning you want to go to the fruitng stage as soon as possible.

shrooms will grow, but they will be small and ugly, and will rot after maturing...bad news town
birth now, then dunk and roll (as most ppl have said) then put it in the FC tomorrow, and begin misting and fanning

I don't know...it looks fully colonized but your pic is not very clear Anyway if it's not 100% just cut off the uncolonized part using a sterilized scalpel or knife.

It happens. Take a knife and wipe it off with rubbing alcohol. Then cut that uncolonized part out until you see nothing but whiteness. Other wise you'll have contamination city.

Pictures? I would keep cutting until you see white. Once you have gotten the bad shit out, you can crumble the cake to a tray and case it with moistened vermiculite. That's what I would do. This happened to me on my first grow, it happens, don't let it get you down.

It's hard to tell, but you're likely close to it being only myc. The interior will look different than the outside, a bit lighter, but as long as you see white strands interweaving the verm, you're good. Looks like there's still some parts that are only verm. Get rid of those and you'll be golden. The gash you made will make a good moisture reservoir, which will result in some beefy fruits. Just fill it a bit of the way with wet verm and make sure it stays wet at all times.

You gonna crumble it or fruit it as is? I would just leave it, it'll do just fine in it's current state. Just make sure you do the roll, that's mucho importante.

It should be fine you shouldn't have cut it, if it is pinning either it is fully colonized or it is contams. It looked colonized to me(from the pics) and cakes never look white in the center stop fucking with it, leave it alone. Post better pics(HQ) so they can be macro sized. CH

Well, you are not going to win a Pulitzer prize with those pics, that's for sure. Anyway it should be ok. Look here, this pic shows a fully colonized cake I cut in half:

Even if it was 100% colonized it looked greyer. The myc is very thin and can be easily damaged by your knife. GL
