Monotub-contamination HELP! Trich? Aerial mycelia

So I found some green stuff in this monotub 4 days after casing it with verm-peat. I pasteurized it in a jar and boiled it in water untill I got it to 140f and let it sit for like 30-40min.. I'm thinking I pasteurized the casing wrong.. Should i cut it out or fruit it right away even though it's not colonized at all? Also there is another strain that I have in the same tub separated by a bag. Since one is contaminated should I separate them or do you think the other one is already contaminated too?
Help me out please! First monotub grow
the 2 pics with the aerial mycelia is the other sub without any visible contam.

fruit it now. it was ready a few days ago. next time you should just put it into fruiting when you case it. i dont see any green. from the picture it looks like normal mushroom mycelium poking through the casing layer.

Get the contaminated substrate on the right out of there.
For pasteurization you should bring your substrate / casing up to 160 degrees for no less than an hour.
At this point I would not scrape off the improperly pasteurized casing.
Unless you live in Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, or somewhere with a really dry climate, you shouldn't need to case tubs.
On your next grow just try keeping it simple... spawn + substrate

Also that green out and a few inches arpund it. Once trich is there's the tub is doomed. Isolate that tub in fruiting you might get some shrooms with half a flush. But no saveing it. There is nothing worst feeling then green in a tub right at fruiting.

Yeah the sub was filing great before the casing then I fucked it up. My humidity in my area is about 70% so I kinda still want to case not to dryy it out. But you said most people put them into fruiting after casing?? That helps I wasn't sure what to do after casing. Anyways thank everyone, I have separated the two sub and have put them into fruiting. Crossing my fingers that they actually work
