Green on mi antlers

Howdy y'all! First post, nearly a decade lurking. Here goes...
First unmodified tub of Ganoderma Sessile, ran it from oats + coir in a bag knock't by LC. *EDIT* two colonized jars of millet by way of LC, then mixed with two quarts of coir. Both millet and coir sterilized separately. Started this action last month, midway through about.
It was doing fantastic until two days eye had noticed a different smell than what was happening for a few weeks. Noted.
Yesterday, eye noticed a small centimeter square on the surface that produced a green hue. Also noticed a small lil antler in its' early formation got green'd.
To alleviate eye got surgical; cut both problem spots and hoped for the best. No hydrogen peroxide or iso or anything silly, just cut and prayed because from what eye've gathered Ganoderma is a resilient one. Anyway... fast forward to today! The full moon, and day seven of a week from HELL! New pressure cooker on the way, but that's a completely different failure haha...
Today! Got home from work, went into room, lifted lid, and noticed same, almost MUSKY smell *sad tears*, then noticed multiple (probably four or so) different locations of this same green, with no source in site, no relativity to the others, obviously something happening on a microscopic level that mi eyes nuh a pickup pon. Going to retire this first, beautiful tub of Gano that has gone up in flames to the compost bin...

However, just looking for input on two things:
1) the green is only on one side, non-sequential to the other greenies... are the antlers gucci to harvest on the opposing side of the tub with no visible green? Or should it all go to the graveyard? Considering the smell is all in there and whatever issue/mold it may be is probably alretti spread everywhere in there? Obviously would only be for personal... But is it even worth harvesting any or nuhnuh???
2) obviously oats and coir are not the most ideal substrate. Got excited when mi feline got mi some Gano culture and had @ it with what was handy. Could this possibly be where a weakness occurred and bacteria overtook a colonized and strong substrate that was growing happy (or so it seemed)? Have wood pellets alretti colonizing and will only use oats as spawn from this point on, yes. Also, sterilized both oats and coir together, procedure, culture, and everything was good (obviously subjective).

Yeah I've found some species of gamoderma are susceptible to mold on the fruits like that. I think I have used some of the good fruits from a tub that molded but be careful and examine them well. Once you see mold on any fruits the tubs a goner for sure...

Even though there is no visible contam on the majority of the mushrooms then there is no way to save the tub? IE. is it not possible to isolate the contam somehow?

I mean, you can try, but the mold is probably already in there

Hey Forrester, thank you for your contribution. Eye went ahead and ditched the tub, picked some beautiful lil nellies to dry and potentially do some resin art with. Have some other tubs growing and cut mi loss! Shall see how the other ones turn out!
Good to know that one can take a healthy dude and work with it from there. We shall see how the other tubs grow and if the "green" seems to persist, eye shall take a fruit and start fresh!
Blessings <3
