I created a starter today... When I started I cleaned the flask and hit it with star san... I get home from work and look at it and I see a few greenish specks on the glass inside at the krasen(spelling wrong im sure). Now a dilemma... Toss and and waste the yeast clean it out better or roll the dice and hope its fine... Safe bet is re do starter... Agree? Or disagree

It's fine. Krausen will form off color specks all over the top, like in the picture linked below.
