I think that's the perlite there Leftfield 
@OP all good mate, no harm in trying. I usually chuck something into the mix to see if it helps. Fingers crossed it's myc and not mold

I didn't read OP added perilite...hopefully none of your mushies decide to eat any perlite...or you'll be chewing on perilite when you try your fruits OP...perilite should stay in the sgfc, it don't belong mixed in your substrate....you're not growing plants OP

That's mold, brother. It'll be green in the next day or so.

Put your spores to agar instead of LC or grains, and make several transfers to ensure a clean culture. Once a clean culture on agar has been established the sky's the limit. Meaning the medium of your choice can be inoculated from there as far as LC, or grains are concerned.

So I transferred to casings 2 days ago. Peat,coffe grounds and some perlite for aeration Just wondering if this looks right?

That needs to be tossed out yesterday. It's clearly mold lol.

Ain't a green mold. And if for some reason it turns green it's not trichoderma morphology. It would be more likely to be aspergillus. Trich turns green well before the white patches of its mold get that big

Can I clean it up using lc to agar? I used the last of my spore syringe to make the lc :/

Ouch, never make a LC directly from spores.

You could try but I don't think so. With liquid mediums once an invader culture establishes it's self it over runs the culture to the point of their NOT being any mushroom myclium in there. Consider ordering a fresh print or spore solution syringe.

Unless the contamination has a kill factor for cubensis it's not completely removing our intended fungi. It just becomes impossible to separate them with any normal methods.
If you worked in a real lab and that LC was the very last stock of cubensis mycelium they would probably try heating it or cooling it to a temperature at which the contamination cant handle but the intended culture can. But thats entirely unrealistic for at home
