So confused, brf penis envy started turning grey/green in jar when 80% colonized

Penis envy were almost colonized when I noticed 2 jars getting some discoloration. It doesn't look like any pics Ive seen of contams. I did 6PE and 6GT pf Tek. Knocked em up 8/14-fully colonized by 9/8 minus 2 PE that are almost 100%. I've had them consolidating since the 8th. All 6GT are perfect, ready to birth. The PE has gone slower and took on some odd colors,but not like green fuzzy mold. It's for sure in 2 jars. It's a weird grey green and if it's mold i don't want to birth with the for sure healthy ones and ruin them. This is my first post so forgive me if I am doing this wrong. I'm going to post pictures. The discoloration started about week and half ago and it appears to be on Mycelium not substrate. Any advice would be fantastic. I've had 2ppl say they are OK but I'm still concerned.

To me, that may be just bruising...

I read they couldn't bruise in jars. It doesn't look like any pics of contams Ive seen. That's on 2 jars, I have another raising concern, same strain, colonizing way slower than the rest but almost there,but its looking way dif than all of em. Getting like a yellowish tint in places, looks like may have bumps on it and kinda looks just different. Plenty of Mycelium, but I'm wondering if cobweb has set in

They can definitely bruise in jars, though it's indicative of suboptimal conditions. Though, I don't see a lot of bruising there. Only thing is the uncolonised part in the last pic -- I can't tell if those are weird coloured spots on it or if that's just the light.

Well I birthed all 6 GT..got my first whiff of nature i reckon. So then I said eff it and birthed one of the greenish PE... It smelt like the GT.. Didn't smell spoiled at all, but definitely a difference in cakes. There was a coat of greenish nastiness around lid when I removed it, top of cake was White, lil fuzzy looking but so were the others. PE cake was alot softer than GT. So since this is my first grow.. Idk if it's contaminated. I took pics...

Best way to tell; especially with bacteria/yeast. A lot of the time you'll just see what looks like an uncolonised spot and then you take it out and OH GAWD! Oh, and I'd wait until it's completely colonised anyway to take it out. Even if it isn't contaminated, raw substrate like that and it will be.
I don't see anything particularly wrong on the lid, at least not from the pics. It should smell like mushrooms (like the kind from the grocery store or whatever) a lot different than sporulating mould (dust smell), yeast (fermenting smell) or bacteria (crap smell). At least, that is for the most common kinds but what you'll see 90% of the time. It's the sporulating mould you'll see easily and not the other two. That's why I liked filter patch bags (well, reason #453) it makes it easy without even needing to open the thing.
BUT - I don't see anything wrong there from the pic.
