Is this jar trying to pin?

I have some cream-colored stuff growing in this wbs jar. At first I thought it was a contam but after some research I think it may be pinning. Can I get a second opinion? If it is pinning is this jar basically garbage? Or should I try to break the jar and remove everything and birth it? Thank you!

That doesn't look like pinning to me. The cracking leads me to believe it's a contaminate. That's not 100% though, maybe someone else has a different opinion.

If you came across something that looked similar to your pic and it said that it was NOT a contam, please include that in your post. I would like to know what that is too. But I don't think that's a pin. It just looks all wrong to be that.

I did not find anything that looked similar to any of the common contams. However, the room that I had my jars stored does have *some* ambient light that comes through the cracks around the doorway, which led me to believe that it may be pinning.
Thank you for all your input. I think I will just toss the jar since I don't want it to infect anything else.

Sorry, I was reading the part where you said you did some research, so I was kinda hoping you could show this and post a link. . Tossing it instead of thinking it may not be contams is probable the best thing in this case. Besides, whats one jar

Ambient light is not a pinning trigger, and the current accepted knowledge is that light is beneficial to all stages of growth, including mycelium colonization. It does not look like any contamination I have ever seen, but it definitely doesn't look like in vitro pinning. Possibly a weird bacterial growth? Does it smell really bad?
