shroom question..

hello everyone, this is my first post, as well as my first attempt at cultivating mushrooms. i have an "science?" growing environment, which consists of 2 buckets, bottom one with a small water heater, and filled with water, the second bucket, filled with volcanic rock (supposedly they hold moisture? the place i bought it from told me that)" on top of the 2nd bucket sits an enclosed plastic dome with small ventilation holes.
Ive currently had success in setting up the spore colonies within glass jars, and transferred them to the "dome" within the past week.
This is my question
There is another "type" of mushroom growing in this dome. It does not resemble the type i specifically grew in the jars ( i googled the adult picture ) and this second type is outgrowing my original spores and species. Is this a contamination issue ? what should i do ? Is the whole colony in trouble or can i "save" it? (if it needs to be saved that is) .. i really have no idea what this second mushroom is.. or how it got into the growing dome.. (inside the dome.. all i did.. was place.. the growing soil that came with the kit in the "bottom" portion of the dome, then gently spread the colony from the jar above..) im really worried that all my work with my "planned" species will be at risk...
any info or suggestions would be immensely appreciated.. thanks to all.

Wrong forum man. You'll have better luck over in the mushroom cultivation forum.

Sounds like the mycodome kit which is an overpriced bucket air pump and lecca.
You can make your own setup which will give much better results at a fraction of the price.
Your post is very confusing. Do you actually have mushroom fruitbodys growing, or are you talking about growing mycelium??
When growing from spores, results can vary, even the look of the fruitbody can look different.
