looks green, maybe you should cover the exposed grain with a very thin "pseudo casing" layer. Next time.

You can try that. I also heard some people mention salt? idk. Dont really fuck with em after they get green.
Search up some options if your not interested in dumping it out 
Goodluck tho

dont cut out contamination. You will only spread the spores everywhere. what you see is just the surface. If you see spores you have no idea where the mold mycelium that produced those spores is, and how deep into the substrate it is.
I cant really tell for sure from the pictures, but id say its suspicious.
If there were mushrooms growing and you wanted to get a flush, then a salt paiste applied to the contaminated area and a few inches beyond will slow it down.
To be safe it would be a good idea to seperate that one from the rest of your grows.

The spores are already in the air, so the worry of spreading them while moving is just nonsense, although you still need to be careful. I have, on several occasions, cut out the place of contamination very carefully, and patched it with coir. Sterilize your hands and whatever tools you are using for the extraction. Next time make sure to completely cover your grains.
EDIT: This only has worked for me on spots I've caught that were no bigger than the back of a screw... Isolate the tub as well.

I'm not scared of the spore count bogeyman either. I wouldn't perform that kind of surgery in the grow room though.
There's a good chance that the spawn was contaminated, meaning there's more spots lurking just beneath the surface.
But maybe you get lucky and it was just that spot. Don't put salt on it tho; the salt sucks water from the substrate which pools on the surface turning to a salt lake. I've tried a few diff things and I think the most effective was cutting out the spot and filling the hole in with tile grout.

trich starts off as white it can be worse than you think when it's turning green

If you live in an area where its not too dry,and its not a problem with your living situation, you might consider fruiting your tub outdoors..SOMETIMES the trich will die off when its exposed to the outdoors.. Once the mean green sets in, its very rare that youll get rid of it.. ive dunked my cakes before in water with just a little bleach, to kill of trich,, but it doesnt always work.. yea, next time..no exposed grain.
