Yellow droplet in monotub UPDATED: Green dots in monotub! HELP

So bad news guys. My first monotub is almost fully colonized and I'm pretty sure it's ruined now. I noticed this single, individual bright yellow droplet in my monotub. It's the only one, so I doubt it's myc piss. It looks unnaturally bright yellow, and I'm afraid I should toss out the monotub. What do you guys think this is?

I wouldn't throw it out yet but it could be sign of contamination.

Anyone else? Nobody can identify whether it's piss or mold.

it's definitely not metabolites. if i had to guess, i'd say its bacteria 
don't touch it or try to remove it. it'll probably make it worse. just see what happens. and post pics again in a few days so other people can learn from it too.

The weird thing about it. It's shiny.
Never seen anything like it. It looks like a ball of miracle grow plant food.
2nd vote on letting it grow. Damn thing might grow legs and walk off....

That's what I mean, never seen this before even after extensively abusing the search engine. It's one single bright yellow droplet, it isn't spreading.
However my monotub has stalled ever since I noticed this thing. So I'm just going to let it sit there while I sit in denial. It's my only tub since the sponser I used sells nothing but sterilized water in syringes.

Doesn't look good, but let it keep going. I bet you'll get fruits.

Learn how to use agar, and all you need is a few spores to make unlimited amounts of grain spawn forever. Don't rely on spore solution.

Can't be bacteria. It's a plastic bead I bet, fuckin poke it or remove it and see what happens when you apply pressure.

That can definitely be bacteria. I've had bacteria ooze like that before, personally.

Okay guys. I let the monotub consolidate to see what the yellow droplet was all about. It must have been myc piss because it slowly dehydrated itself, it's gone now.
However I fucked up even more somehow. Now there's disgusting looking green dots on the tape on the side of the monotub. There's nothing in the actual myc itself, that stuff is still white, fluffy, good-smelling, and no signs of contam. This stuff is only on the tape itself, which concerns me. I know I should toss this, but I saw a tiny little stem beginning to poke out, making me think this thing still has a shot (however minuscule) of fruiting. What should I do?

Why is there tape? I'd just remove it all. It's not doing anything anyways. Just getting contaminated.

Agreed. You should carefully remove the tape.

I was afraid to remove it because I didn't want to further spread the contams

They are further spreading in there on tape though... so you're just contradicting yourself. Just be careful like eagle said. Colonized myc can normally win against contamination anyway and won't even let it germinate.

I just bought some peat moss made by Miracle Gro and just noticied it has plant food in it (oops!)
http://www.miraclegro.com/smg/goprod/miracle-gro-sphagnum-peat-moss/prod70260
The little yellow balls look almost identical to the pic in the main post.
OP: what kind of substrate did you use? and what brands did you use? maybe it was just a little ball of plant food or something?
glad to hear it worked ok though

I used Eco-Earth brand reptile bedding which was 100% coconut husk shreds, and vermiculite from an organic feed store (50/50 coco and verm). It definitely had no plant food in it, but I ended up ruling out the yellow droplet as myc piss, because it eventually "popped", or dried up, and left a little yellow stain on the myc, and a shroom ended up growing right on top of it. I've had myc piss before but I never saw such a vivid yellow orb before, and only 1 little drop in the entire tub. It looked scary.
Thanks very much, all my hard work finally paid off.

Here are the fruits! By the way TheEaglesGift, the flushes in your signature, wow. I respect you man. That is a royal fucking flush right there. I hope one day to even be %1 as good as you.

Some big ones there. AA+ is such a beautiful strain.
Those split caps are due to low humidity. Not a big issue, but they could've used more misting and humidity while growing.
