Is this contaminated. Or is it supposed to look like this?

how many days has that cake been in the SGFC? Why did you not roll in verm/double end case?
I have not done cakes in 15 years, but I will say no that is not typical. However, its not a death blow either. Monitor it. any color change get it outta there.
Hang out until one of the big dogs checks in or someone that does cakes regularly.

Been in for about a day and a half. But I forgot to turn off the light. So it has been under constant light for like 36 hrs.

Those are fine, it's not cobweb mold. The mycelium grows out of the medium when it's about to fruit and it'll get a lil fuzzy if there's not enough fresh air ime

The light is fine, just don't do that going forward. 12/12 is fine. honestly just use natural light if you can.
I'd say let it ride for now and just provide optimal conditions. maybe chuck some damp verm on the top if you have it.

I have sort of a similar effect to mine right now too. Although different circumstances. my cakes actually started pinning before fully colonized but I did not notice any contamination in any of my cakes so I introduced them to the fruiting chamber. This is only my first attempt but so far so good! hopefully by next friday I should have somethin to pick!

Let me know what you all think! Like I said this is my first time so I would not know if anything is going wrong.

Messed up it should have read 16/8
I got it from the natural light cycle in my current location. Some of the best flushes I've seen were in these conditions. But if you think thats too much light im not gonna argue it.
OP listen to PussyFart.

We usually recommend 12/12 because the mycellium grows just as much if not more during the the dark phase.....
I have not experimented with anything else, so I cannot comment on anything else......
