First mistake is opening the jar every day to stir it.
Yes it is mold.
Take the mold off the top and seal the jar without the air lock.
I have pretty much given up on mine as they are a hindrance more the any help.
How much salt is there?
What are the temps compared to salt ratio?
You have three things that can happen.
1 It will rot and you WILL know it.
2 It will ferment.
3 It will be so salty it wont ferment but wont go bad either.
