Green growth in outdoor cake

I dumped a bulk sub of pc burma next to the side of my house close to the ac overflow drain so it would stay moist with less attention. Checked on it a few times gotten maybe .5 oz from the waste pile noticed was a bit TOO moist so got a shovel and did my best to scoop it away from the drain and found ALOT of this INSIDE my waste sub. I know it's a mold of some kind but is it safe to consume fruits from this sub? Not sure.
 Best photo I could manage light poor outside and brightest bit I found. Hope it's good enough

Overflow drain will have plenty of shit living in it to give attention to your...
What were you trying to do o.O?
Like, was this newly colonised mycelium or spent / nearly spent?
I wouldn't eat anything that was sitting outdoors next to an overflow drain.
Call me pompous but I have my limits :V

It was from the runoff of the ac, a pipe comes out the side of the house and drips really slow down to ground it's just condensation drain from ac not really overflow. The sub was near spent so dumped outside to clean the tub and prep for my next project. I doubt there is anything in the water to worry about.

Not so much for you...
Obviously *something* no good is there.
Can't say what it is from the picture. Same colour as trichoderma it seems but I can't tell if it's parasitising the mycelium (I assume it was colonised before you put it out there?) or if it's just some competitive fungi.
I don't know anything about growing outdoors except what I've read about other types of mushrooms but I'd think you'd want to case or something. Just sitting out there it's either going to be WET (as opposed to moist) or too dry, anyway.

It was colonized and near spent 5 flushes from that sub before I dumped it. I'm skeptical about the green... trich was my thought too but it's a deeper green than I've seen before from trich and growing through the center of the sub not on the surface. Fruits look healthy but I'm hesitant to try them. Got them dried and stored separate.
I was hoping trich, I know it's not toxic if ingested. Just worried it may be some other more harmful mold. The problem wasn't the water, it was the AMOUNT of water. The sub would get thoroughly drenched during the heat of the day when the ac runs consistently

I wasn't really planning on getting more out of it just dumped it there to see what would come of it. I did case with 2 lbs of casing from a vendor here that were left from a previous project and that casing was mostly colonized within a week or two

you're not keeping the moisture in so there's either water touching it or it'll dry out
why not just make tea out of the spent mycelium?
it actually has a good amount of psilocybin at that point
i wouldn't eat anything from that however, just me

Hadn't thought of myc tea... not too fond of the idea of steeping myc covered shit and drinking the results. Eating something grown in shit is a bit different. How do you do myc tea?

Well, we used rice not shit 
But, we just crushed it up a bit and put in a coffee filter, ran the pot...
You're right, if it were grown in poop I wouldn't either.
Rice is okay though.
