Looks weird to me. Also no, mold will almost always take over CUBENSIS mycelium. Other species can beat it but those jars look wayyyy off to me.

Just wait and see if the mycelium continues to grow and takes over the vacant real estate. I think that it will.

I think I'll wait and see. Everything else looks fine besides that spot of mold. Maybe it'll pass over it. Either way, I'll try fruiting in a separate chamber. I spent a lot and worked way too hard on this to just toss it. Might be a stupid decision, but I really want to fruit for my anxiety hey?
Also, I know people who crumple theirs after contamination, outside and they'll fruit over time. The contam is still there, so why does it work? Can I just risk taking a heated spoon, cutting out that piece (or chunk) and then place in a pot with nutrient-rich soil (I'd like to avoid compost despite its effectiveness.) and grow it? Could I do it inside? I understand that by cutting that out, the cake will still have mold, as its microscoping, but what if I cut 'more than enough' of the mold out, including some myucelim, to the point where it's only ycelium? Could I fruit that? I just want to make this work regardless of contam haha. Not ready to just toss and give up yet.
edit:
opened it. Mold. Tossed. One jar left. Wish me luck.

Followup question.
So I've got this bag. As you can see mycelium growth happening.
When I injected the spores, I did so downward, in the injection port (hence the mycelium being below the red silicon port.)
Now my question is, up by the top, well, you know how mycelium is whispy and fibre-y? I'm starting to see subtle spots of almost-white-see-thruogh whisps growing at the top. (Top as in, if this were a cube, the TOP) It's hard to see, like really hard to see. But could the mycelium be growing up there at the very top of the block, even though I only injected the syringe downward? 'Cause I hope it's not some form of cobweb mold...
My luck right?

-I'll see if I can get a good image

Oh yeah. 100% just the lighting. My phone's camera isn't great. Also the colour of the walls aren't helping any. But no, there's no green at all.

So it's really hard to see, and it's not the bag. It's 'inside'. But it doesn't look "thick" like mycelium, but it's growing outward like mycelium, in a network of fibres. And it's literally like "less thick mycelium". Like it looks whispier and not as "full".
Could this be just myecelium growing before it gets super white and shit? Please don't tell me this is mold. I've spent WAY too much on this shit and put in WAY too much stress and work. Thanks.

Just wait. It looks like you have an all-in-one grow bag with mycelium in several places.

Thanks! I injected it myself. I've never seen whispier/opaque mycelium before, and it's unusual that it's growing on the top of the block, when I only injected downward

If you have something in fruiting and with pins you can get some mushies before the mold takes over. If it’s still in a jar or bag you’re just growing more mold spores in your space when you fruit it. You are going to do what you want here I think. There is no good argument for fruiting anything with obvious mold is the general consensus in these forums. Hope your bag is good and not from the same syringe!

Bag looks fine besides the shitty pic quality, but if you have identified mold in your jar it will almost positively overcome the entire jar. Cubensis mycelium dies in the pretense of mold pretty much every time. I’d be really surprised if your cube mycelium “grows over it”
Test your spores on agar next time for cleanliness

Your cake is healthy enough to keep. Just cut off the green mold part. If youre paranoid about spreading the mold, fruit in isolation like a gallon sized zip-lock with perlite on the bottom.
Your spawn bag is a goner thou. I see a bunch of green mold in there.

Already tossed the jar, there's no green mold in the bag; it's just the picture.
Thank you guys!

The jar pics all look like mold to me. I would get rid of them if you havent already.
I would call that bag suspect based on nothing other than the fact that you injected it with spores. Get some close up pics, with some really good lighting for better advice.

I actually used a different syringe for this one. I think the others were contam because of some stupid shit I did in an attempt to speed up the process (Place an 80 degree space heater DIRECTLY in front of it, bring them into the bathroom with me because they looked dry- so they got 'steamed', and you could see the water inside) - it was kind of my own stupidity, tbh. Like I was REALLY stupid with it. I got the syringe from a very reputable seller, so I doubt it was the syringe. But regardless, pulled a different syringe on the bag, so I'm hopeful! And thank you! Yeah it's really hard to get a good picture with this camera. Thanks!

Edit;
I was moving my bag to a bigger area. When I put it down, found a hole in the bag. I think I caught it on something when I was moving it. I immediately taped it with micropore tape.
The substrate was in contact with the air... This guarantees contams, doesn't it? Probably had it sitting anywhere form 3-8 minutes, give or take. The Universe just doesn't want me to work through my anxiety with this huh? Haha... haha... ha... ha.... ...
... shit.

Definitely maybe. Possibly for sure. You just have to watch it closely.
