Contamination after colonizing. Blue/Greeny pins

Had this cake colonizing and took an awful long time, mainly due to the fact only 1 inoculation spot actually started colonizing so had to go all around the jar.
I also add that I probably left them in the jar a week after pinning as I was away and wouldn't be able to fan/mist if I put them in the chamber and eventually the pins were quite big (as seen) and the jar started colonizing onto the dry verm.
I'm guessing I should just throw these from the images below Still waiting on my first successful grow so any advice is appreciated if they can be saved!.
Thanks

U only have one jar? It's not looking contaminated to me. The blueing of the mushrooms is normal. I don't see cobweb mold. Or discoloration Ur mycelium looks stressed. Maybe someone would disagree with me, but I think you should check out the dunk and roll procedure, you can find it under the pf tek guide under: mushroom cultivation>getting started>Pf tek.
I think this will lead to your first successful grow Just make sure to keep it moist but not wet!

it looks looks like they pinned inside the jars while consolidating. Bruising and skinny stems from low fae is normal in this case. Just treat the pins gently while dunking and rolling and throw it into a sgfc. Watch them fluotish! They'll probably stay bruised. But they'll still be edible

It was the discolouring that put me off as I just think I'm doomed to fail!
I had another jar that colonized ok but got really short pins so I've started from scratch with my sgfc.
I dunked it last night so will roll it later today carefully sprinkling verm around the pins as I've read in another thread. Hopefully we should be good from there. Thanks for the info guys!
