what the heck is this? (contam)

Hi guys. First time growing. Everything was going fine. I got an ok yeald for first timer. Yesterday, I saw some fuzz growing on my cake. I decided to up my FAE. Note: I have a 5.5x6x3 grow tent with lights/fan/humidifier (auto). I came home to look at my babies, and I almost had a heart attack!! There is this greenish/blue sh!t growing on one of my girls. My grow tent has a slight metallic smell (think blood). I immediately sprayed it with 50/50 bleach and a 50/50 saltwater mix, that's when I noticed that its the mycelium/new fuzz. Is this normal, or Atleast OK? It seems to be the same color as a bruised mushy.

Lastly, these were picked from that same cake.
 
Thanks

Don't use shit like bleach or anything else if you see mold. Its done, mold is everywhere in your cake at the point where you are able to see it.

That is a serious problem there. More than likely contaminated your entire grow tent with mold spores. Definitely should deep clean the shit out of that thing before you put new grows in there or you will keep having the same issue.

Never open contaminated jars, bags, tubs or anything like that in your house or you will spread mold spores everywhere. Also, after handling contaminated items, don't go touching any other mush cult until you clean up.

Bottom left is definitely toast. Get it out of that tent quick.
Top left I don't see any mold but its very dry.
Give the top left a good misting and keep an eye on the others

Yes, they are perfectly fine even growing from a contaminated tub.
