Mycellium can look a bit gray at the start, but that looks like Trich to me.
If I recall from what you said in previous threads:
Noc'd with syringe (then shaken.)
Noc'd with lid-pops in a SAB.
Suggests that either you have a contaminated syringe or a problem with SAB tecnique. The black stuff looks like it might be part of the grains, but it's hard to see.
Glad you saved your syringe instead of using it up redoing your nocs. I'd suggest you make some invitro v-tek jars out of dollartree betty crcoker twist tops. http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/19035259#19035259
Inocculate a few of them with a few drops of spore solution on one point, inspect for contams, G2G a quart from a clean petri, then G2G the rest of your quarts.
--------------------
I spawned some popcorn casings and had double-overlay cause I didn't put enough hydrogen peroxide in my automated aquarium mister. I only got one mushroom so I cut off the head part where the seeds fall from and put it in a jar of LC and sprayed it all over a tin of PF cakes I made with gravel, cardboard, and bisquick in my microwave. I think it will be good cause B+ is so potent. Triggered yet? Only a square would say "a cube is a cube."
No, this does not look right...

Thanks for the info man...i do need to start working with agar. yea its not myc. it looks like gray dust covering the millets. the black contam looks like ALOT of tiny black things covering a certain part of the jar. This is the only jar that has condensation inside it and the only contaminated one the other 13 are doing good... Right now iam pcing this jar in the kicthen...and thats where iam keeping the other ones inside a transparent rack. can the spores be transmited throw the pc's steam? Should i have transferred the other jars in another place while pcing this one?

It IS mycelium, just not the kind you want.

Damn near impossible. I've never even PC'd a jar to get rid of it, I just try to open them downwind of me and mist down any spore matter immediately outside. Trich spores seem to be everywhere anyway, just avoid opening them inside. The rest of your jars are already being exposed to trich spores externally, but are sealed, so it doesn't matter. Glad to hear the rest of your jars are fine.
You can easily make some good clones or the occassional opportunistic isolate with just grain petris. In your SAB, rip the stipe of one of your best clusters (lots of mushrooms, but not lots of little underdeveloped ones,) open at the base, cut out a couple tiny samples with a flame sterilized knife, and dump them into about 1/8 cup grains. Do like 2 or 3 if the cluster is realy good. Some will contam, most won't. When you get a good one, transfer half to another 1/8th cup, save the rest as a master culture, then g2g that new 1/8th to a quart.
I've done grain to grain tansfers away from contams, taken aggressive looking isolated sectors, etc. It would have been easier with agat, but you can do all kinds of shit without it, and you certainly don't need it for cloning. If you have old PF jars you can convert them to grain petris easily with a postal tyvek disk.

Just open up outside, dispose of the contaminated sub
Put some bleach in your jar and swirl around
Add some water and rinse
Put in some antibacterial soap add water till you get bubbles and swish around a while.
Before you go back inside make sure you 'disinfect' yourself with Lysol
If possible remove all your clothes and spray
Not possible in most urban environments
